Three Boys; or The Chiefs of the Clan Mackhai, by George Manville Fenn.
________________________________________________________________________
This time the Manville Fenn formula of peril after peril does not lead us abroad but to an almost ruined castle on the north-west coast of Scotland.
Max is the son of a London lawyer, from whom the Clan Chieftain has been borrowing large sums of money and not repaying them, so that in the end the Castle is distrained upon. Meanwhile Max, who has been sent up to the Castle to stay with the Mackhais, has been put through test after test of his bravery by the Chieftain's son and his gillie.
With this information the end of the story is almost predictable, yet we read of peril after peril, and still we feel sure that this one must be the last.
