In "The Rescue of President Carden," Dick Briefer crafts a swashbuckling adventure where a humble deck hand named Harry—once briefly king of the forgotten island of Weetina—teams up with his shipmate Prince to reclaim his homeland from the tyrannical King Jules. With the help of Old Pierre, the only one who knows the truth about Harry’s secret past, they confront the king in a dramatic chase that ends in a fatal fall from the palace parapet.
