"Lentävä hollantilainen" by Frederick Marryat is a novel written in the early 19th century. The story begins in a small, fortified village in the 17th century, introducing us to Filip Vanderdecken, a young man filled with adventure and the desire to escape mundane existence. The narrative focuses on the themes of familial duty and the mysteries surrounding his mother's troubled past, particularly in relation to his father's elusive fate at sea. At the start of the novel, we meet Filip and his mother, who is gravely ill and burdened by a haunting secret linked to his father. Filip, restless and eager to improve their dire situation, contemplates going to sea despite his mother's pleas for him to stay. The opening is imbued with tension as his mother reveals hints of his father's dark legacy and the pain it has caused her, prompting Filip to seek the truth about their family's history. As his mother's health deteriorates, the weight of her secrets and Filip's determination to uncover them sets the stage for an unfolding adventure laden with mystery and moral dilemmas.
