Pennington Tracks Chai Hung Threats in British Borneo
Government assigns Pennington to recapture Chai Hung leader of the Yellow Seven gang in British North Borneo. Pennington warns planter Hyde and his daughter Dora Bateson to beware Chinese bandits, and instructs on suspicious signs a Chinese playing card with seven dots and a silk fan case to identify the intruders. He suspects Lai Ho, Hyde’s servant, as a point of observation while tensions rise during early-morning jungle excursions.
