A golden scorpion is the only clue left behind at the crime scenes of four men’s mysterious murders. When England and France’s finest detectives embark on a complex murder investigation, they are led through London’s underworld to the seedy opium dens of Chinatown in search of the infamous ’Lair of the Scorpion’ and the cunning master criminal who purportedly dwells within. A thrilling tale sure to appeal to lovers of crime fiction, this masterful narrative is a veritable must-read for fans of Rohmer’s prolific work and makes for a great addition to any personal library. Arthur Henry Ward (1883 - 1959) was a prolific English novelist who wrote under the pseudonym ’Sax Rohmer’. Most celebrated for his series of novels featuring the master criminal Dr. Fu Manchu, his other notable works include ’The Quest of the Sacred Slipper’ (1919) and ’Tales of Chinatown’ (1922). This text was originally published in 1919, and is proudly reprinted here, complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.
