  <abstract>"The Deserted Yacht" by Mildred A. Wirt is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the adventures of Madge Sterling, a young girl who travels to Cheltham Bay for a sailing trip on her friend Enid Burnett's yacht, The Flora. However, upon her arrival, she finds that Enid and her father are missing, and it soon becomes clear that sinister events are unfolding.  The opening of the novel introduces Madge as she arrives at Cheltham Bay, eager to join her friends for a cruise. However, her excitement quickly turns to anxiety when no one meets her at the train station. After discovering that the yacht is deserted and potentially involved in a mystery, Madge decides to investigate further. She encounters a reluctant boatman, hears unsettling sounds aboard the yacht, and ultimately finds evidence of a struggle, leading to the revelation that Enid's father has been kidnapped. Madge's determination to unravel the mystery and save her friends sets the stage for the thrilling events to come. (This is an automatically generated summary.)</abstract>
