| Summary | "The Motor Pirate" by G. Sidney Paternoster is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a notorious criminal known as the Motor Pirate, infamous for his audacious highway robberies. The narrative is delivered from the perspective of James Sutgrove, who becomes personally entwined with the events involving the Motor Pirate, suggesting a mix of adventure, suspense, and possibly romantic intrigue as he seeks to understand and perhaps confront this mysterious figure. At the start of the book, the narrator introduces the Motor Pirate's exploits, highlighting his sensational crimes that have captured the public's attention. Sutgrove himself is introduced in a casual setting where he is preparing for dinner with friends. As he reads about the latest highway robbery attributed to the Motor Pirate, the scene shifts into a vivid recount of Sutgrove's encounter with this enigmatic criminal later that night, during which he and his companions are held up at gunpoint. The opening sets up an engaging blend of mystery and action, as Sutgrove's ordinary life is dramatically interrupted by the chaos of the Motor Pirate's criminal activities.
