In L.P. Hartley's "The Cotillion" young Marion attends a well-to-do masked ball, hoping it will take her mind off the distressing reaction her young paramour, Harry Chichester, had when he dumped her - though she's had quite a history of playing with the affections of young men. But her oddly taciturn partner at the masquerade seems remotely familiar. While familiar in it's trajectory, this does a great job sketching the expectations and parlor "games" of the higher classes, while also being quite dark with it's dialogue near the end.
