This book follows the author's experiences as an executor managing the affairs of his ward, Lorine Regan, after the sudden death of her father. When Lorine declares she will only accept a significant portion of her inheritance if the Soesoehoenan of Surakarta sends her the great Surakarta emerald, the author's suspicions are aroused. He is convinced that she is being taken advantage of by the Javanese ruler, who is only making false promises to her in order to gain access to her wealth. As he investigates further, he becomes embroiled in an increasingly dangerous game of international intrigue, in which his ward's life - and his own - are threatened. The author uses his experience with this case to explore the themes of love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
