Trade paperback. 'The Yellow Seven' was Edmund Snell’s first published book, and it introduces his super-sleuthing character Peter “Chinese” Pennington, also known as “he who sees in the dark”. Pennington has the ability to perfectly assume Oriental guise, and his talents are called upon to investigate forces working against British interests in North Borneo.
A series of deaths, each marked by a card displaying the sign of the secret underworld society The Yellow Seven, prompts Police Commissioner John Hewitt to enlist Pennington’s help. But the task of capturing the leader of The Yellow Seven proves to be a tough one.
"Chinese" Pennington would later return in the author’s books 'The Sign of the Scorpion' and 'Yellow Jacket'.
