| Summary | "The Green Eyes of Bâst" by Sax Rohmer is a gripping mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a series of strange events that unfold in London, beginning with the protagonist's eerie encounter with mysterious eyes at night, which sets the tone for the dark, suspenseful narrative. Key characters include a freelance journalist grappling with his past, the enigmatic Isobel Merlin, and law enforcement figures investigating a chilling murder. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the narrator, who enjoys a secluded life away from the city's hustle and bustle. His peaceful existence is disrupted when he becomes embroiled in a bizarre series of occurrences after witnessing a strange pair of green cat-like eyes outside his window. As he contemplates the unusual sights and noises of the night, a sense of dread envelops him. The subsequent chapter reveals a murder mystery involving the recently deceased Sir Marcus Coverly, whose body is found in a crate at the docks. The plot thickens as the narrator discovers troubling connections to Isobel, the woman he once loved, unraveling a tale of jealousy, intrigue, and the supernatural linked to ancient Egyptian deities.
