Summary "Gordon Craig, Soldier of Fortune" by Randall Parrish is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Gordon Craig, a young man with a tumultuous past who is drawn into a world of intrigue and moral ambiguity after an unexpected encounter with a mysterious gentleman, Mr. Neale. As Craig navigates his new situation, he is offered a job that promises not only financial reward but significant risk, leading him to a greater adventure involving impersonation and an estranged heir. The opening of the novel introduces Gordon Craig in a moment of laborious toil, where he engages in a casual conversation with a well-dressed stranger who invites him to discuss a potentially lucrative job. This chance meeting piques Craig's interest, as he yearns for excitement and change from his current routine. As the narrative unfolds, Craig is led into a complex intrigue involving a deceptive plan to impersonate a young heir named Philip Henley, whose family estate hangs in the balance. The stakes rise as he contemplates the implications of his choices, hinting at the ethical dilemmas and personal growth that will shape his journey throughout the novel.
