Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Bill Bolton and the Flying Fish" by Lieutenant Noel Sainsbury, Jr. is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the exploits of Bill Bolton, a midshipman navigating thrilling situations along with his companion Osceola, a young Seminole chief. As they investigate a ghostly ship adrift at sea, they stumble into a world of piracy and suspense, revealing intriguing mysteries involving vanished crews and a deadly confrontation on the high seas. At the start of the narrative, Bill and Osceola are piloting an amphibious plane over the Atlantic when they spot a suspicious yacht that does not seem to be moving. Driven by a sense of duty and curiosity, they decide to investigate the vessel only to find it eerily deserted. The opening captivates readers with the duo's clever dialogue and light humor, but quickly shifts to tension as they navigate through the unsettling mystery of the abandoned ship and encounter a young boy, Charlie, who claims his family has vanished. Soon, they are thrust into a dangerous confrontation with pirates, led by the sinister Baron von Hiemskirk, who plans to commandeer a luxurious liner and threatens the safety of its passengers. The story sets up a thrilling adventure filled with daring rescues and strategic encounters, inviting readers to engage with the unfolding drama.
