| Summary | "The Plunderer" by Henry Oyen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on Roger Payne, a young man disillusioned with the confines of city life, who yearns to escape the business world and return to the outdoors. As he grapples with his decision to leave a partnership with Jim Tibbetts, the narrative unfolds, exploring themes of adventure, the allure of freedom, and the challenges of new beginnings. The opening of "The Plunderer" introduces Roger Payne as he resolves to buy out his partner and break free from a life he feels is stifling. We see his struggle against the monotony of an office job and his longing for the adventure of outdoor work, which he reflects on wistfully. Shortly after making this decision, Payne prepares to return to his hometown, Jordan City, where he plans to explore opportunities. His story intertwines with that of Isaiah Granger, a slick businessman who has begun to establish a dubious land deal, which sets the stage for potential conflict and adventure as Rogers’ journey unfolds in a new environment filled with promise and challenges.
