Dr. Fu Manchu #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeFu Manchu uses mind control to enslave a man who helps him orchestrate a scheme involving a fire at an architect's building and the theft of a ship. After the man is found outside a hotel and rescued, he provides cryptic information about Fu Manchu's plans before dying. A British Member of Parliament named Featherstone becomes entangled in the conspiracy when Fu Manchu's agents frame him for arson, though evidence eventually suggests the architect Johnson deliberately set the fire and may be working with Fu Manchu, leaving authorities uncertain of the full scope of the villain's plot.
When Sir Lionel Barton's expedition unearths the relics of El Mokanna from a Persian tomb, the treasures become the target of a sinister plot—one orchestrated by Dr. Fu Manchu, who seeks to ignite religious fanaticism across the East. Sir Denis Nayland Smith races to protect Barton, his daughter Rima, and their party from Fu Manchu's relentless operatives, from the streets of Ispahan to the chaos of Cairo, where danger lurks at every turn.
Flashgun Harper, ace photographer for the Daily Slant, finds himself tangled up in a suspicious fire at the newly dedicated Featherstone Recreation Center. When the philanthropist accuses architect Adam Johnson of arson, Harper's camera reveals something that doesn't quite add up—a mysterious figure captured before the ceremonies even began. Harper sets a clever trap to draw out the real culprit and prove Johnson's innocence, armed with nothing but his wits, his camera, and an unexpected advantage in total darkness.
