About this book

A newspaper report of a scholar's strange death draws the opening narrator back to his friendship with Ronald Mirlees. Found at his desk in a Shanghai hotel, Mirlees has left another puzzle: the writings on which he had been working cannot be found. His research into treasures associated with Chinese Buddhist temples supplies a background of disputed scholarship, dangerous expeditions and hidden wealth.

Gilbert Collins's novel, first published in 1923, combines adventure in China and Tibet with science fiction and mystery. In a later mountain scene, Stephen Poyning discovers that he can communicate with unfamiliar valley inhabitants through classical Greek. A search through melting snow turns a question of language into an immediate struggle to find missing companions.
