Autorenporträt
Last week's adventure, "The Affair of the Patagonian Devil," showed how Mademoiselle Yvonne began her career as a detective-consultant. This week's tells how she continued it. Sexton Blake and Tinker are once more to the fore, and the author has skilfully spun an ingenious yarn wherein the mysterious glamour of the East is blended with the equally adventurous West. All lovers of Mademoiselle Yvonne will appreciate this story.
