| Summary | "Motor Matt's Promise; or, The Wreck of the Hawk" by Stanley R. Matthews is a thrilling adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the exploits of Motor Matt, a daring young motorist and inventor known for his fearless nature and expertise with various motorized vehicles, including his airship, the Hawk. Alongside his friends, Carl and Dick, Motor Matt embarks on a series of adventures that revolve around a dangerous mission involving stolen diamonds and encounters with a gang of thieves. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to an intriguing scenario where Carl and Dick mistakenly believe they have seen Motor Matt acting suspiciously on the levee. Their confusion leads to a series of events that culminate in a fierce chase, culminating in the unexpected wreck of the Hawk after being shot at from below. As the boys work to recover from their harrowing encounter, they grapple with the realization of the threats posed by their enemies and the mysterious circumstances surrounding them. The opening sets the stage for a high-stakes adventure filled with deception, mistaken identities, and the unwavering determination of Motor Matt to uphold his promise to retrieve the valuable diamonds.
