Summary "Assignats" by Henry Leverage is a historical adventure tale published during the early 20th century. The story likely revolves around themes of loyalty, betrayal, and intrigue set against the backdrop of maritime exploits during a tumultuous period marked by the rise of Bolshevism. The plot unfolds as a group of castaways, led by a Russian named Ivan, embarks on a perilous journey aboard a decrepit ship, the "Shongpong", filled with questionable cargo and a crew harboring hidden motives. The narrative follows Micky McMasters, a British sailor, and his mates Mike Monkey and Red Landyard, as they take on the risky task of navigating the treacherous waters of the Japan Sea. Upon discovering their cargo is not what it seems, but rather possibly explosives or illicit goods instead of tea, tension mounts. As they find themselves caught between the Russian crew's intentions and the threat of government forces, the trio must devise a plan to escape and foil a Bolshevik plot to smuggle revolutionary funds into North America. The story culminates in a dramatic climax as their ship meets misfortune, allowing the men to make a daring escape, ultimately saving themselves and preventing a significant threat to law and order.
