Edgar Wallace

When a man is found dead one early morning with his throat cut, detective J.G. Reeder knows he is about to have his work cut out for him. It can but only be the work of John Flack, Crazy John Flack. An evil genius madman, he’s escaped from Broadmoor Criminal Asylum and is on move. But detective Reeder is perhaps the only match for Crazy John, and he’s not giving up easily. 

A thrilling murder mystery tale of two sharp witted men trying to out-do one and another, Edgar Wallace’s ‘Terror Keep’ is ideal for fans of the blockbbuster hit "Knives Out" starring Daniel Craig.

Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was an English writer so prolific, that his publisher claimed that he was responsible for a quarter of all books sold in England. An author, journalist and poet, Wallace wrote countless novels, short stories, screen plays, stage plays, along with historical non-fiction. His work has been adapted into more than 160 films. In 1932, Wallace died suddenly in Hollywood, during the initial drafting of his most famous work, ‘King Kong’.

Terror Keep

‘The Mind of Mr. J. G. Reeder’ is a collection of eight, highly original detective short stories centred around a very unassuming Mr. Reed. He is an older man, not particularly tall or muscular, to see him in the police station you would assume he was a clerk, but this small man strikes fear in the London underworld. In his own words, he has the mind of a criminal, and using this he is tearing the criminal underworld apart piece by piece. It is a brilliant collection of shorts, each with their own compelling, unique plot and brilliant characters. This book is perfect for some fun reading on a commute home or anyone keen to see what an elderly ‘Sherlock’ might be like.
