Published in 1913, this early spy/adventure story kept me turning pages. As a contrast to the usual hero of this genre who travels with expertise all over the globe, this story contained a reluctant protagonist who never travels far from his London flat and office--but winds up holding a key to a puzzle that affects his more adventurous friends. I thoroughly enjoyed this story.
