“Exciting Adventure.”

Billionaire George Harley Rockham appears to have been abducted from the Shanung, a coastal steamer, when that ship comes up missing. Rockham has his hands in oil throughout China, and if he doesn’t show within four days his stock will fall, and his oil rights will be up for the taking. Jimmy Vance, a reporter who goes after any story till it’s been solved, has been working on the story since the ship went missing. Then Rockham’s beautiful daughter walks in his office offering a big reward if Vance will find her father. Vance refuses the award, but smells a good story and joined the girl in her search. She abducted by crooks, but Vance turns the table on them, then they had for Kowloon, an island near Hong Kong, where he suspects pirates may have boarded the Shanung.

They are captured by the pirates and encounter the crooks again, headed by a Chinese gangster, and a big fight ensues while Vance does his best to save the girl and rescue the billionaire. This story has lots of fun action before the story concludes. L. Ron Hubbard knows how to tell an exciting story with lots of adventure and heroic characters. Highly recommended to adventure lovers, and those who just love a good yarn.
