| Summary | "The Black Bag" by Louis Joseph Vance is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Philip Kirkwood, a young American artist who finds himself in a challenging situation after a disaster in San Francisco leaves him stranded and nearly penniless in London. Struggling with feelings of isolation and despair, Kirkwood encounters a series of unusual characters that set the stage for a tale filled with adventure and intrigue. The opening of the book presents Philip Kirkwood in his bleak London hotel room, reflecting on his misfortunes and contemplating the future. He is soon visited by Mr. Brentwick, an elder friend who expresses concern over Kirkwood’s plans to return to America. After their conversation, Kirkwood meets Mr. Calendar, an enigmatic figure who offers a dubious proposition involving a passage to America in exchange for a "trifling service." Unfazed by Calendar's odd behavior, Kirkwood navigates a mysterious encounter with a young woman named Dorothy Calendar, leading to a series of fraught events where danger lurks in unexpected corners and sets the tone for the adventures to come.
