| Summary | "Jack Harkaway and His Son's Escape from the Brigands of Greece" by Bracebridge Hemyng is a novel written in the late 19th century. This adventurous tale continues from "Jack Harkaway and His Son's Adventures in Greece," following the escapades of the titular character, Jack Harkaway, and his interactions with a colorful cast, including his son and their companions as they face off against a band of brigands in Greece. The opening of this novel introduces us to a light-hearted yet tension-filled atmosphere, beginning with a mysterious letter from the Contessa Maraviglia inviting Mr. Mole to a grand ball. As the story unfolds, we see Mole’s amusing misadventures, including his reluctance to attend the ball due to fears of a romantic entanglement and possible danger from the contessa's affections. Meanwhile, a subplot involving the brigands is hinted at, as we are introduced to Mathias and his crew, who plot mischief. The scene sets a whimsical tone, interspersed with suspense, laying the groundwork for future confrontations and escapades that promise both humor and action as the characters deal with the brigands lurking nearby.
