Although there are many themes of "The Landlady" by author Roald Dahl, one of the main themes is appearance vs reality. The Landlady is very nice and generous towards Billy which causes him to ignore the sinister plot the Landlady is conjuring.
Haven't read the book but this may be helpful to you:
"<span>In The History of the Kings of Britain, Geoffrey of Monmouth proposes to set forth the history of the British kings starting with Brutus and ending with Cadwallo. Geoffrey undertakes this endeavor at the request of the Archdeacon of Oxford who presents Geoffry with an ancient text to translate from British into Latin. The history of the British kings shows how fortune, jealousy, and betrayal can lead to the demise of an entire nation. On the other hand the text also details the qualities that are necessary in a good ruler who unites his people in peace. While Geoffrey's account reads like a novel, the basis for the book is historical and gives the reader a generalized view of British history."

I would say the answer is B.
In a story, the setting is the time, place, and geographical location of where it is taking place.
