Summary "The Pirates of Shan: A Rick Brant Science-Adventure Story" by John Blaine is a science-adventure novel written in the mid-20th century. The story centers around young adventurer Rick Brant and his close friend Scotty as they embark on a mission to rescue two missing scientists from the Spindrift Scientific Foundation, who have mysteriously disappeared during an expedition in the Sulu Sea. As the boys navigate through thrilling and dangerous circumstances, they uncover a shadowy group tied to the enigmatic "Pirates of Shan." The opening of the novel introduces Rick Brant and his friend Scotty as they deal with the anxiety of their fathers, particularly Rick's scientist father, concerning the unexplained absence of colleagues Dr. Shannon and Dr. Briotti. As concerns mount, Colonel Rojas joins the investigation, and the boys eagerly get involved in the search mission, demonstrating their resourcefulness and bravery. With the help of their Hindu friend, Chahda, and scientific experts, they aim to unravel the mystery behind the scientists' disappearance and its connection to a larger threat. The narrative sets the stage for an adventurous pursuit, filled with intrigue, danger, and a hint of the supernatural. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
