About this book
"Ashes to Ashes" by Isabel Ostrander is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around Norman Storm, a man embroiled in financial turmoil and personal conflicts, particularly regarding his marriage to Leila. As Norman grapples with his deteriorating financial situation and his wife's unexplained actions, he becomes increasingly suspicious, leading to a chain of events that spirals into betrayal and tragedy. The opening portion of the book introduces Norman Storm as he meets with his attorney, Wendle Foulkes, where a serious discussion about his dwindling inheritance and reckless financial ventures takes place. Norman's insecurities are further compounded when he unexpectedly spots Leila in the city, although she had not informed him of her plans. As the story unfolds, Norman faces the unsettling truth of Leila's possible deceit, igniting his jealousy and suspicions about her fidelity. This sense of betrayal escalates into a climax of violence, culminating in shocking consequences that leave readers eager to discover how the unraveling mystery will resolve.
