Publisher's Synopsis

The Yellow Claw is a novel written by Sax Rohmer, first published in 1915. It is the third book in the Fu-Manchu series, which follows the adventures of a Chinese mastermind and criminal mastermind named Dr. Fu-Manchu. In this novel, the British government enlists the help of Nayland Smith, a detective, and his friend Dr. Petrie to investigate a mysterious criminal organization known as ""The Yellow Claw."" The organization is believed to be run by a Chinese criminal mastermind, and it is suspected that they are planning to launch a major attack against the British Empire. As Smith and Petrie delve deeper into the investigation, they encounter a number of dangerous and exotic characters, including a beautiful Russian spy, a mysterious Chinese woman, and a group of ruthless criminals. The Yellow Claw is a thrilling adventure story that combines elements of mystery, espionage, and martial arts action. It is a classic of the genre and a must-read for fans of Rohmer and detective fiction in general.Then--his brows drawn together--he stooped to the body of the murdered woman. Partially raising the fur cloak, he suppressed a gasp of astonishment. ""Why! she only wears a silk night-dress, and a pair of suede slippers!""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
