'The Doctor’s Family' (1861) by Scottish author Margaret Oliphant is a beautifully observed Victorian novella, set in the fictional English town of Carlingford, a little out from London. In Chapter Six of "The Doctor’s Family", Dr Rider pays an evening visit to the cottage and is unsettled to find Nettie absent. Tension quickly rises when a heated argument breaks out between the doctor and his brother. Before the night is over, a sudden accident involving one of the children throws the household into alarm and changes the tone of everything... A dramatic turning point that brings conflict and further emotional strain to the story...
