The Wrecker by Robert Louis Stevenson and Lloyd Osbourne
"The Wrecker" by Robert Louis Stevenson and Lloyd Osbourne is an adventure novel written in 1892. The story centers on the mysterious abandoned wreck of the Flying Scud at Midway Atoll. Clues hidden in a stamp collection lead to tracking down the missing crew and unraveling what happened. This sprawling South Sea tale combines episodic adventure, comedy, and detective mystery elements that only connect in the final chapter. The loosely woven narrative
reflects its collaborative creation, with each author contributing different sections. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
