| Summary | "The Book of All-Power" by Edgar Wallace is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book revolves around themes of intrigue, power, and romance, featuring characters such as Malcolm Hay, a young engineer, and Israel Kensky, a mysterious bookbinder, along with the Grand Duchess Irene Yaroslav. The story appears to be intertwined with political conspiracies and the complexities of Russian society, particularly as the characters navigate the dangers that arise from their ambitions and connections. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Malcolm Hay, who is exploring employment with the Ukraine Oil Company and anticipating travel to Russia. Simultaneously, we meet Israel Kensky, who has a fraught relationship with his daughter Sophia, and is engrossed in creating a book that holds considerable significance. The introduction sets the stage for political machinations, with Kensky’s connections to the Grand Duchess and the looming threat against the Russian royal family becoming central to the unfolding plot. The mood is charged with tension and the elements of adventure, as characters navigate the undercurrents of loyalty, ambition, and impending danger in a world fraught with mystery.
