Creator Conyers, Dorothea, 1873-1949
Title The Scratch Pack
Credits Produced by Al Haines
Summary "The Scratch Pack" by Dorothea Conyers is a novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of World War I, the story revolves around Gheena Freyne and her circle, exploring themes of war, personal struggles, and the relationships within a small community. The protagonist, Gheena, grapples with her life in Duncahir, revealing a blend of resilience and determination as she interacts with various characters, including Darby Dillon, a soldier left crippled by war, and Basil Stafford, who harbors secrets of his own. At the start of the narrative, the characters are introduced in a coastal setting, where Gheena expresses her concerns for her dog, Crabbit, and reflects on the challenges faced by those affected by the war. Darby Dillon, despite his physical limitations, maintains a cheerful disposition, while Gheena navigates the complexities of her relations with her stepfather, her mother, and the expectations placed upon her as the heiress of Castle Freyne. The opening establishes a serene yet precarious environment, hinting at the disturbing realities of the war and setting the stage for the characters' journeys as they confront both personal and external conflicts.
