"In Strange Company: A Story of Chili and the Southern Seas" by Guy Boothby is a novel published in 1894. When Marmaduke Plowden embezzles two hundred thousand pounds from his London clients and flees to Chile, a group of unsavory characters learns of the theft and sets their own plans in motion to claim the money. The pursuit spans from London to the Argentine Republic, Chile, Tahiti, Thursday Island, and Batavia in this adventure across the southern seas. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
