Overview

Super quick read that has been translated from its original French. Herman Shultz is sent to Greece to collect samples for the London Botanical Society. Once there he learns about a group of thieves that work under The Mountain King, Hadgi Stavros. The Mountain King has quite a setup and is in league with the government officials and business owners. He will kidnap people (tourists especially) and hold them for ransom. He allows them to write letters to friends, family, whoever has the money and then he collects the ransom. If the ransom does not arrive, he kills the prisoners. Mr. Shultz is kidnapped and when Stavros finds out he is a man of Science- well he sets his ransom at an astronomical price. Shultz tries to escape and then the twist comes in. I won't spoil it but it is pretty funny
