"Clutterbuck's Treasure" by Frederick Whishaw is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Godfrey Bernard Hewetson, a young man who, after discovering he has inherited a curious challenge from the miserly old man William Clutterbuck, embarks on a treasure hunt in Bechuanaland. Clutterbuck's will invites several potential heirs to compete for his hidden fortune, placing the prize within the reach of whoever can be the swiftest and most cunning. At the start of the novel, we meet Godfrey, who has just become penniless following the death of his father. Struggling to find his way in life, he inadvertently intervenes in a robbery of an elderly man, only to discover that this old man, Mr. Clutterbuck, holds a significant fortune. After Mr. Clutterbuck's death, he learns that he must race against several other relatives to find hidden treasure buried in Africa, leading him into a world filled with deceit, rivalry, and adventure. From the very beginning, Godfrey confronts various obstacles and treachery while trying to secure his place in the treasure hunt, setting the stage for a thrilling pursuit across a challenging landscape.
