| His investigation of the case of the man with the shaven skull afforded an instance of this, and even more notable was his first meeting with Major Jack Ragstaff of the Cavalry Club, a meeting which took place after the office had been closed, but which led to the unmasking of perhaps the most cunning murderer in the annals of crime. |

|
| A new force stalks the fog-shrouded streets of London, bringing death to its victims ... the mysterious Fire-Tongue! Psychic detective Paul Harley investigates, in this mystery classic with supernatural elements. From the author of the Fu Manchu books. |

| Rohmer decided to describe a seemingly impossible murder and then solve it as he continued to write. By the end of the third chapter, he realized he had left no room for a solution and gave up. Meanwhile his agent had sold the story to Collier's for serialization and the first chapter had already been printed. Sax travelled to New York and holed up in a hotel to try and find a solution. He kept writing but could think of no way out. Unbelievably, he was visited by Harry Houdini who had underlined one sentence and told Rohmer how to explain the murder. The all important sentence is in chapter 3. |

|
| Some of Paul Harleys most interesting cases were brought to his notice in an almost accidental way. Although he closed his office in Chancery Lane sharply at the hour of six, the hour of six by no means marked the end of his business day. His work was practically ceaseless. But even in times of leisure, at the club or theatre, fate would sometimes cast in his path the first slender thread which was ultimately to lead him into some unsuspected labyrinth, perhaps in the underworld of London, perhaps in a city of the Far East. |
