Set in the seemingly perfect town of Hadleyburg, known for its unwavering honesty, the story explores themes of integrity and corruption. The town's pride in its virtuous reputation leads to a rigid upbringing, where children are taught honesty from infancy and shielded from temptation. However, the arrival of a mysterious corrupter threatens to unravel this facade, drawing parallels to the biblical Garden of Eden. Twain's narrative critiques the dangers of self-righteousness and the fragility of moral superiority.
