The Man With Yellow Eyes was written by Bertram Atkey and published in 1923. This is one of the “Smiler Bunn” stories, perhaps the best-known character created by Atkey. Bunn is both a character of criminal leanings as well as an amateur detective. In this novel Bunn and his friend Fortnight must save an American heiress in England. Disclaimer: Contains offensive stereotypes typical of pulp from this period, in particular the “Yellow Peril” period of the turn of the century.
Bertram Atkey was both an author and actor, living in England from 1879 to 1952. His recurring characters include Smiler Bunn, Prosper Fair, Merlin O’Moore, and a disabled boy detective, Nelson Chiddenham. His approximately 22 works appeared both in book form and serialized in such magazines at The Saturday Evening Post.
