Description
A loud, stout Englishman in the common room of the Locanda del Leone, aggressively working the room and offering bribes for information about a brig that recently arrived in Alexandria — and, more particularly, its cargo. He presents himself as an antiquities dealer.
Background
Pyke was expecting Endicott’s shipment — the smuggled Saria tablets bound (in Endicott’s plan) for the Asiatic Society of Bengal. The brig has arrived; the cargo and its owner have not. Endicott is dead at the bottom of the sea and the crate sank with him, so Pyke’s expected windfall has simply vanished, and he does not know why.
Connections
- Jasper Endicott — the dead colleague/supplier whose cargo he awaited.
- The party — he questioned Adrien (deflected) and the men, before a drunken Freddy raved about “scratches and dead men” and Holt dismissed it as seasick hallucination, driving Pyke off in disgust.
