’The Wrecker’ is an adventurous and detective mysterious novel co-written by R. L. Stevenson with his stepson Lloyd Osbourne in 1892. It is knitted around the left wreck of the Flying Scud at Midway island. It covers wide locations in Paris, Scotland, Honolulu, San Francisco, the Marshall Islands, Midway Island and Sydney in Australia. The story also depicts change of an artist in to a businessman. This story tells of the adventures of Loudon Dodd. Dodd is an American whose wish to be an artist dissatisfies his business-minded father. It is a extending, episodic adventure story, a comedy of brash manners and something of a detective mystery. It turns around the deserted wreck of the Flying Scud at Midway Island. Thus this novel tells the life of Dodd, from his days as a failed art student in Paris, to his business ventures with Jim Pinkerton in San Francisco, to the long complex case of the shipwrecked Flying Scud whose mystery dominates the second half of the book and reveals a horrible and bloody tragedy at sea.
