Des Rajahs Diamant

Robert Louis Stevenson

The Rajah’s Diamond is not the adventure of a single hero but a cycle of three linked chapters. A notorious jewel changes hands in London society, connecting the paths of private secretary Harry Hartley, young clergyman Simon Rolles, Francis Scrymgeour, and Prince Florizel. Stevenson combines chance, pursuit, and social masks with questions of greed, temptation, responsibility, and moral choice.
