| Summary | "Rainbow Landing: An Adventure Story" by Frank Lillie Pollock is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds primarily through the perspective of the protagonist, Lockwood, who embarks on a journey that is equal parts personal and tense, chasing an adversary named McGibbon (also known as Hanna) who has left a trail of betrayal and ruin in his wake. Set against the backdrop of the Alabama River, the story conveys an atmosphere rich with Southern life, mystery, and the struggles of the characters in their respective quests. The beginning of the novel introduces Lockwood on a steamboat journey up the Alabama River, where he is ensnared by thoughts of his past and the anticipated confrontation with his nemesis, McGibbon. The atmosphere is steeped in anticipation and a sense of unease as Lockwood grapples with the weight of his purpose. After disembarking at Rainbow Landing, he unexpectedly encounters McGibbon, resulting in a missed opportunity for revenge as Lockwood is overtaken by a mix of emotions—surprise, exhaustion, and a wavering sense of purpose. The story quickly establishes themes of vengeance and moral confusions while hinting at the complexities of relationships, especially as Lockwood's paths cross with the Power family, who have their own rising fortunes tied to Hanna, creating a dynamic mix of intrigue and underlying tension.
