The spectacular actions of this mysterious criminal are on the increase holding up the Bank of England, robbing the imperial crown... No one seems able to stop him. He is so audacious that he lets the police know in advance where he will commit his crimes, each time ridiculing Scotland Yard a little more. The apparent ease with which he evades police schemes begins to worry the highest authorities of the country. The Home Office asks Captain Francis Blake to solve the mystery and discover the identity of the man who hides behind the Yellow Mark. The captain immediately takes as partner his old friend, Professor Philip Mortimer, whose scientific knowledge will be invaluable in solving this extremely complex enigma.

There he plans to meet his old friend, Professor Ahmed Rassim Bey, who offers him the fantastic opportunity of satisfying his passion for Egyptology. Professor Bey has invited him to take part in deciphering his latest discoveries--in this case, some papyrus coming from mummies of the Ptolemaic age.

And yet, Atlantis Mystery, with its prehistoric monsters, futuristic machines and subterranean lost civilisations, stands in stark contrast with S.O.S. Meteors, the action of which takes place entirely within Paris and the surrounding countryside. A falsely mundane environment that demonstrates Jacobs' ability to summon adventure anywhere! The 32 pages of extra material highlight, among other things, the author's creative process and sources of inspirations.","brand":"Bookreps NZ Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47900292677868,"sku":"9781800441491","price":85.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781800441491-blake-mortimer-the-complete-collection-vol-3.jpg?v=1783397897"},{"product_id":"blake-mortimer-the-complete-collection-vol-4-by-edgar-p-jacobs-9781800441507","title":"Blake \u0026 Mortimer - The Complete Collection Vol. 4","description":"With The Time Trap, first of the two titles in this fourth volume, Jacobs tackles a quintessential science-fiction trope: time travel. Dinosaurs, medieval knights and an apocalyptic future make it a fabulous adventure, and who cares if, for the first time, Olrik isn't there? The Affair of the Necklace, on the other hand, is a pure crime story done in ultrarealistic overtones that set it somewhat apart from the rest of the series. Finally, the extra material will shine a light on the dangers of censorship at the time - from which even Jacobs wasn't safe.","brand":"Bookreps NZ Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47900293103852,"sku":"9781800441507","price":85.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781800441507-blake-mortimer-the-complete-collection-vol-4.jpg?v=1783397907"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/edgar-p-jacobs.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
