The atmosphere is one of tension, both socially and politically, as Americans are fleeing the countryside amidst revolutionary threats. Nettie's attention is drawn to Carmen Whiffle, whose alluring presence and past create immediate rivalry and suspicion, particularly concerning her interactions with Nettie’s brother-in-law, Larry.
