ISO: historical fiction, weary traveler in a pub or inn setting
I want something that gives maybe Red Dead Redemption or even old European traveler vibes. Historical fiction is a plus but something cozy, maybe spooky. Inspiration being a part of Les Misérables.
The whole premise of Well’s The Invisible Man focuses on the story of a mysterious stranger arriving at an inn in the countryside in 19th century Britain. More on the spooky side than cosy side!
