In The Blue-Eyed Manchu (1917), a Secret Agent, haunted by a prior encounter with an Afghan warlord, is charged with going to China, finding the One Man who is stirring up troubles across Asia, and killing him. To do so, he must outwit and dodge the killers sent by the cult of Doorgha, black-faced Hindu goddess of destruction, intent on turning him into a human sacrifice. The Blue-Eyed Manchu is a novel of twenty chapters. In the 1910s, Achmed Abdullah (1881-1945) emigrated to the United States and eventually became a writer and playwright, and later on, a Hollywood screenwriter. Abdullah’s work appeared in various US magazines, including Argosy, All-Story Magazine, Munsey’s Magazine and Blue Book. He earned an Academy Award nomination for collaborating on the screenplay to the 1935 film The Lives of a Bengal Lancer.
