Samuel Hopkins Adams' mystery book "The Flying Death" was first released in 1908. The story takes place in the early 20th century, in the bustling metropolis of New York. The story follows a compelling tale that revolves around medical researcher Dr. Horace Byrd's search for a treatment for a fatal illness known as the "Blue Death." While the city struggles to contain the deadly and mysterious illness, Dr. Byrd is rushing to discover a cure. The book deftly combines detective work, suspense, and medical intrigue to keep readers on the edge of their seats. Adams examines the moral conundrums raised by medical research as well as the effects of unrestricted scientific experimentation throughout the narrative. In addition to being an exciting mystery, "The Flying Death" explores contemporary social and moral dilemmas. In order to craft a gripping story that both addresses the larger social issues of the early 20th century and holds the reader's interest, Adams deftly blends aspects of science, medicine, and detective fiction.

Nach dem 1916 erschienenen Roman von Samuel Hopkins Adams The Unspeakable PerkRomantik und gefährliche Abenteuer auf einer tropischen Insel - doch wer ist der geheimnisvolle Käfermann?Eine gelangweilte Tochter aus der besseren Gesellschaft hat ihren Vater zu einem Aufenthalt in dem politisch instabilen, aber wunderschönen mittelamerikanischen Land überredet. Ihre eigentliche Absicht: drei Verehrern zu entkommen, deren Hartnäckigkeit sie als lästig empfindet. Einer der drei ist so versessen auf eine Heirat, dass er ihr nachfolgt. Bei dem Versuch, ihm aus dem Weg zu gehen, begegnet sie einem Amerikaner, der anders ist als alle anderen Männer, die sie je kennengelernt hat. Er ist ein Naturforscher, ein 'Käfermann', der in seiner übergroßen, gefleckten Kleidung und seiner dicken dunklen Brille selbst wie ein Käfer aussieht. Er ist ein Einsiedler, der die Gesellschaft seiner Landsleute meidet, tagsüber im Wald und am Strand nach Exemplaren sucht und auf einem Hügel lebt, auf dem vielleicht auch eine junge Frau wohnt. Polly ist fasziniert und fragt sich, ob es möglich ist, all die Geheimnisse zu lüften, die er so entschlossen zu verbergen scheint.
