The Crow's-Nest is a novel written by Mrs. Everard Cotes in 1901. The story revolves around a group of people who live in the same boarding house in London. The main character, Miss Jane, is a young woman who is struggling to make ends meet and is forced to take a job as a governess to support herself. She becomes friends with the other boarders, including a struggling artist, a retired sea captain, and a young couple who are trying to start a new life together. As the story progresses, the characters' lives become intertwined, and they each face their own challenges and struggles.
