The Quest Of The Sacred Slipper

The Quest of the Sacred Slipper is another rough-and-tumble tale of eastern evil clashing with western civilization by Sax Rohmer. The book has a story of a group of homicidal Muslims who are racing after a slipper that once belonged to the prophet Mohammed in this gory novel by the prolific and commercially successful Sax Rohmer (Arthur Henry Sarsfield Ward). In this narrative, journalist Cavanagh becomes entangled in a dispute about a stolen object-the Sacred Slipper-that is purported to have belonged to Mohammed and was guarded by a covert organization. At the very least, anyone who touches the object loses their offending hand; at the absolute worst, they lose their life. There is a lot of what appears to be supernatural behavior that is later revealed to be commonplace deceit, in keeping with Rohmer's usual style. It's quick to read and has an action that compels the reader to move to the next page.
