American millionaire Theodore Racksole and his daughter Nella stay at the exclusive Grand Babylon Hotel.

Work Description
Thronging with princes, diplomats, beautiful heiresses and international conspirators, the sumptuous suites and corridors of the Grand Babylon are buzzing with gossip, intrigue — even murder. The action opens (and swings from one cliff-hanger to the next) when Theodore Racksole, a New York railroad millionaire with more money than sense, decides to buy up the Grand Babylon, 'for an amusement'
