The Staying Guest centers around a mystery that unfolds in a seemingly tranquil setting. The story likely begins with a social gathering or event, during which a guest—unexpectedly or otherwise—overstays their welcome. This guest's prolonged stay may be due to unforeseen circumstances, but as the narrative progresses, it becomes clear that there is more to their presence than initially apparent.The plot likely involves the uncovering of secrets, hidden motives, and potentially criminal activities. The staying guest could be involved in or witness to a crime, leading to an investigation by either an amateur sleuth or a professional detective. As with many of Wells's works, the story may feature twists and turns that keep readers guessing about the true nature of the events and the identities of the characters involved.
