McNeile is a suspenseful narrative that falls within the genre of adventure fiction, likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a voyage on the S.S. Andaman, spotlighting themes of piracy and deception as it follows the events that unfold with a group of missionaries and the unexpected twists that arise during the journey.
