"The Crimson Flash" by Roy J. Snell is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Johnny Thompson, a former lightweight boxing champion, who finds himself embroiled in a circus adventure filled with intrigue and unexpected challenges. The narrative combines elements of action and suspense as Johnny navigates through a colorful array of circus characters while pursuing a lost diamond ring. At the start of the tale, we are introduced to Johnny at a circus where he is tasked with guarding the wealthy MacDonald twins. After a series of mishaps, including a skirmish with circus workers and being bound and left unconscious, Johnny escapes only to discover he is searching for the engagement ring of one of the twins, which he believes has fallen into the hands of a circus performer. As he embarks on a quest to retrieve it, we see glimpses of Johnny's resourcefulness, strength, and determination, alongside the unfolding circus spectacle that involves boxing bears, eccentric performers, and unseen threats lurking among the crowd. This opening sets the stage for an unfolding adventure that promises excitement and mystery. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
