Henry Leroux is writing peacefully in his room when a strange woman appears at his door. She is ill and presently faints in his presence. Henry runs up to fetch Dr. Cumberly, but when they all return, they discover that the woman is dead. And not only that, she is completely naked! In her hand clutches a note that says, "Your Wife," and "Mr. King," but the note is incomplete. The other half is torn away by the assailant. Gaston Max and Inspector Dunbar are called upon to solve this heinous crime. But as they get closer and closer to the truth, they discover that Mr. King has well-laid plans. Plans that will destroy English society as they know it!Sax Rohmer was a prolific author of early science fiction and fantasy. He was perhaps best known for creating the super-villian, Dr. Fu Manchu -- a character who went on the become the subject of many films and, in fact, much plundering. (Think about it for a moment: how many evil Chinese Mandarin masterminds have you heard tell of? Remember Ian Fleming's Dr. No? Remember Lo-Pan, from Big Trouble in Little China? Egg Fu, from Wonder Woman? Be careful. They're everywhere.)
