From the Dust Jacket:It was his zest for experience that made Edgar Wallace such a brilliant story-teller, with a sharp ear for dialogue, a profound knowledge of people from all walks of life, and a journalist's nose for a good story. He wrote hundreds of stories, but those grouped around the characters in this selection are probably the most enduringly appealing. In these pages you will meet "The Sooper", Wallace's thoroughly down-to-earth police hero; super-sleuth Angel, Esquire; The Brigand, a charming conman; The Ringer, a classic hero-villain; and many more. Here are stories of confidence tricks on transatlantic liners and forgery in Notting Hill, of blackmail, murder, and theft. For anyone with a taste for crime fiction this selection is a feast of first-class exciting reading.
