Real Detective Tales, April-May 1927
The Third Adventure of Professor Forrester
THE MONKEY GOD
A Thrilling Novelette
by Seabury Quinn
When Professor Forrester, unique detective, accepted Horatio Milsted's invitation to a jazz house party he feared a dull time -- and had it. But all at once his dullness vanished, for he was suddenly plunged into a whirl of mystery, and exciting adventure and fearful intrigue, that sharpened his wits and taxed his detective ability to the utmost. The strange theft of Hanuman, the Monkey God, the equally strange death of its owner, the consternation and panic that followed, and the sinister shadow of oriental mysticism, hovering darkly over all -- these offer material for a brave tale that nobody can tell better than Seabury Quinn.
