Ernest Brammah Smith was an English author. Bramah created the characters Kai Lung and Max Carrados.
Max Carrados is blind, but in his case blindness is more than counter-balanced by an enormously enhanced perception of the other senses. How these serve their purpose in the various difficulties and emergencies that confront the wealthy amateur when, through the instigation of his friend Louis Carlyle, a private inquiry agent, he devotes himself to the elucidation of mysteries, is the basis of Mr. Ernest Bramah's new book. The adventures that ensure range from sensational tragedy to romantic comedy as the occasions rise.
