"The Black Box" by E. Phillips Oppenheim is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a master criminologist named Sanford Quest, who is highly regarded for his unique methods in solving crimes. With a captivating mix of mystery and intrigue, the plot introduces various crimes and enigmatic characters that Quest encounters, creating an atmosphere full of tension and suspense. At the start of the narrative, we meet Sanford Quest in New York, where he is depicted as a figure of fascination and authority. As Quest's cousin introduces him to the city, they come across Quest himself, described as a master detective whose very presence commands respect and fear. The chapter establishes the setting and tone for the unfolding plot, which seems poised to delve deeper into themes of crime, morality, and the psychological aspects of human behavior as it relates to criminality. Quest's character is intriguing, with hints of complexity and depth, suggesting that the narrative will explore not only the crimes he investigates but also the man behind the renowned reputation.
