Sinossi
The Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu is a 1913 novel by Sax Rohmer. It follows Dr. Petrie after Nayland Smith arrives unexpectedly from Burma and shares news of a sinister threat: Dr. Fu Manchu, a brilliant Chinese criminal described as both poisoner and chemist, is targeting men connected to India. As Smith presses the search across London’s opium dens and the setting of English country estates, he pursues Fu Manchu’s activities involving a mysterious “Third Party.” Fu Manchu’s apparent aim is to secure Europe’s best engineers for an unspecified purpose, while Smith and his allies find themselves repeatedly outmaneuvered.
