The Curio Collector

Originally published in The Popular Magazine in December 1912
Yorke Norroy, secret agent, remains in search of the parts of a six-plate jade set holding intel on opium smuggling. This latest foray takes him to Talbot Blake, a self-proclaimed connoisseur of the arts, who refuses to sell his plate to Norroy. Others will not be so ready to take 'no' for an answer.
