| Summary | "The Yellow Typhoon" by Harold MacGrath is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around naval officer Bob Hallowell, who is consumed by a cold anger related to a tumultuous past with a woman known as Berta, the titular "Yellow Typhoon." As he seeks to confront her in Manila after years of emotional turmoil, themes of vengeance, love, and betrayal begin to unfold in a richly atmospheric setting. At the start of the novel, we meet Captain Bob Hallowell, who is grimly determined to confront Berta upon her return to Manila. His icy demeanor reflects the anger he's held onto for six years since their fateful honeymoon night where she betrayed him. Meanwhile, Berta's perspective reveals her manipulative and cunning nature as she seeks to reclaim her position and wreak havoc in Bob's life. The narrative teases a tense face-off between the two, hinting at themes of retribution and emotional complexity in their relationship. Additionally, Lieutenant-Commander Mathison becomes an important character, navigating the treachery surrounding Hallowell while also hinting at larger espionage intrigues. The opening lays the groundwork for a gripping story filled with suspense and emotional conflict. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
