Description
"Honolulu detective Charlie Chan goes undercover in the California desert in this classic mystery adventure. The transfer of a valuable string of pearls from Hawaii to California draws Honolulu detective Charlie Chan into the orbit of an eccentric financier with a penchant for exotic pets. When he encounters a Chinese-speaking parrot, Chan is intrigued by the provocative and dangerous question it asks. And when the bird mysteriously dies, Chan is determined to discover the answer. Going undercover as a cook, the famous sleuth uncovers a series of crimes in the second Charlie Chan mystery by Earl D. Biggers. First published in 1926, The Chinese Parrot was adapted into the 1927 silent film The Chinese Parrot , and the 1934 film Charlie Chan's Courage."--,Provided by Freading.
