Summary: "The Bradys After a Chinese Princess; Or, The Yellow Fiends of 'Frisco" by Doughty is a detective novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Old King Brady, a seasoned detective, and his partner Young King Brady as they work to thwart a smuggling operation involving opium smugglers in San Francisco. Their investigation becomes even more complex when they discover that a Chinese princess, Skeep Hup, is tangled in the plot, raising the stakes for their mission as various dangers loom. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the setting: a foggy night in San Francisco where the Bradys are awaiting the arrival of smugglers near India Basin. As they sit in their motorboat with a small team of Secret Service operatives, they overhear voices in Chinese that suggest the smugglers have captured the princess and are in distress. Alice Montgomery, a female detective and partner to Old King Brady, is called upon to help decipher the situation, but soon a dramatic unfolding leads to Alice's abduction. The opening sets a tense and intriguing atmosphere, pointing to deeper mysteries ahead as the Bradys find themselves entangled in both a smuggling ring and a race against time to save Alice and the princess.
