Covers are VG and without fading or darkening to spine. In "Yellow Shadows," Rohmer takes a departure from the Fu Manchu series and crafts a different kind of story. The novel follows the adventures of Paul Harley, a consultant detective, who becomes embroiled in a mystery involving a sinister secret society in London's Chinatown. The story combines elements of crime, mystery, and exoticism, as it explores the activities of the secret society and the intrigue surrounding it. While "Yellow Shadows" is not as well-known as the Fu Manchu series, it showcases Sax Rohmer's talent for crafting suspenseful narratives with a touch of the exotic. The novel captures the spirit of the time and place it portrays, offering readers a glimpse into the mysterious and alluring world of early 20th-century London's Chinatown.
