Trapped by Malays, A Tale of Bayonet and Kris, by George Manville Fenn.

This is good lively yarn by the master of suspense. There is continuous
action throughout the book, and you are kept on your toes wondering how
we are going to get through the latest apparent disaster. Sometimes
just a little reminiscent of The Middy and the Ensign, set in a similar
location, with similar personnel, but different enough to escape too
much criticism. Makes a good audiobook.
