| 520 | _a"The Mandarin's Fan" by Fergus Hume is a novel written during the early 20th century. It centers around Rupert Ainsleigh, a young man burdened by his family's misfortunes, who is on a quest for a valuable jade fan that holds the promise of wealth and resolution to his financial woes. The story weaves themes of love, curses, and the supernatural, setting the stage for a mix of romance and mystery. At the start of the narrative, Rupert is engaged in a conversation with Major Tidman, revealing the tension of his financial troubles and an ancestral curse associated with the Ainsleigh family. He learns about a mysterious jade fan belonging to Mandarin Lo-Keong, which is said to bring fortune to its possessor, and he believes it could help save his estate. As Rupert expresses his determination to find the fan, discussions about his love for Olivia Rayner, the daughter of his aunt Sophia Wharf, introduce further complication, as Miss Wharf holds a mortgage on his estate. As Rupert navigates the intricate web of personal and familial conflict, hints of darker mysteries surrounding the fan begin to emerge, foreshadowing the challenges he will face in his quest.
