Plot overview
Introduction
What you need to know
The whole novella in brief, chapter by chapter, and how its mystery is withheld until the last two documents.
Where each chapter's key moment falls, and how the third-person mystery gives way to Lanyon's and Jekyll's own documents.
Edexcel's novel question has two parts, and neither marks context: part (a) on the printed extract marks language, form and structure (AO2); part (b) on the novel elsewhere, from memory, marks the argument and its references (AO1), not language analysis. Use context only where it explains a reading, and say which part each worked paragraph and exam tip is for.
