本の内容
What do you do when a face on a poster starts to look like the man who raised the woman you love? That is where The Yellow Face begins. A London hoarding shows a yellow face with bulging eyes and one word, Nostalgo, and young barrister Jack Masefield cannot stop seeing his fiancee's guardian in it.
Fred M. White wrote this sensational mystery in the early twentieth century. Jack, his friend the journalist Richard Rigby and Inspector Bates chase clues that keep vanishing. You get the whole chase, and the questions the book keeps asking. How can a locked study be full of music? Why are there several men with the poster's face?

A yellow face stares over London
The story opens in a London drawing room, where Claire Helmsley and Jack Masefield wait for dinner. Claire is rich, kind and popular. Jack is a young barrister with plenty of daring and very few briefs. They are engaged, and at his wish they keep it secret from her guardian, Dr. Spencer Anstruther.
Outside the window, scaffolding is covered in posters. In the middle is a yellow face with bulging eyes and one word, Nostalgo. London has talked of little else for two months.
Claire says the face frightens her because it reminds her of someone. Jack says it reminds him of her guardian. Then the log fire flares, and Claire sees Anstruther's face dark with rage before it turns smooth and smiling again. A small likeness and a doubt about a respected man start the whole book moving. The first clue is a face that nobody can yet explain.
