AFFAIR IN ARABY is the sixth book in Talbot Mundy's 'Jim Grim' adventures
set in India and the Middle East.
A highly exciting adventure story featuring James Schuyler Grim,
better known as Jimgrim. Jimgrim is an American secret service agent
employed by the British and stationed in Jerusalem. With him are his
faithful sikh shadow, an American and an ex-soldier of the Australian
forces, all eager for a fight of any kind. This opportunity soon presents
itself, as the ambitions of the French in Syria arouse the enmity of
King Feisal of the Arabs. For his aid in WWI, the Allies promised Feisal
the kingship of Syria, Palestine and Trans-Jordania. This promise they
have not kept, however, and the French are out to discredit or kill
the Arab chieftain. To further their ends, an order is forged, ostensibly
from Feisal to his Arab adherents, which calls for a massacre of
the Jews in Jerusalem.
