| Summary | "Hildebrand; or, The Days of Queen Elizabeth, An Historic Romance, Vol. 2 of 3" is a historical romance novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The narrative unfolds during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, primarily focusing on Evaline de Neville and her relationship with Hildebrand, set against the tumultuous backdrop of political and social challenges of the period. The characters grapple with personal trials as they navigate the complexities of love, loyalty, and ambition in a time rife with religious persecution and political intrigue. The opening of the volume introduces Evaline de Neville, reflecting on her emotional turmoil after learning about her father's imprisonment due to his Catholic faith. Despite her despair, she displays a determined spirit, seeking to help her father and clinging to memories of her feelings for Hildebrand. As she strategizes to deliver an important letter that could influence her father's fate, she encounters Bernard Gray, a mysterious figure tied to Hildebrand. Their interaction reveals underlying tensions, particularly regarding Evaline's loyalty to her faith and her budding connection with Hildebrand, setting the stage for a narrative shaped by both personal stakes and broader historical forces.
