A THRILLER TO PLEASE EDGAR WALLACE FANS
This is one of Wallace's extraordinary thrillers with an over the top villain. The unctuous master criminal Colonel Boundary. The Colonel receives an envelope in the mail that contains a playing card, knave of clubs and wrote on it Jack o'Judgment. Stafford King had devoted his time to smashing the Colonel's gang. The Colonel was accused of robbing a merchant of sixty thousand pounds by means of card tricks. Cocaine, dope fiends, gambling, show girls, and stage-door Johnnies add tricky obstacles and frightening drama. The action is fast paced and justice is done.

THE BOOK OF ALL-POWER
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCING MALCOLM HAY
I F a man is not eager for adventure at the age of
twenty-two, the enticement of romantic possi.
bilities will never come to him.
The chairman of the Ukraine Oil Company
looked with a little amusement at the young man
who sat on the edge of a chair by the chairman's
desk, and noted how the eye of the youth had
kindled at every fresh discouragement which the
chairman had put forward. Enthusiasm, reflected
the elder man, was one of the qualities which were
most desirable in the man who was to accept the
position which Malcolm Hay was at that moment
considering.
" Russia is a strange country, II said Mr. Tremayne.
" It is one of the mystery places of the world. You
hear fellows coming back from China who tell you
amazing stories of the idiosyncrasies of the Chink.
But I can tell you, from my own personal observa- ?

The Clue of the Twisted Candle
This thriller by Edgar Wallace is a perfect example of the Edwardian era's suspense novels which were the most popular form of fiction after the pulp romances of that time. It depends upon twists and turns and unexpected surprises and keeps the reader wondering what's next. It also includes an unflappable hero and a thoroughly despicable villain (an Albanian aristocrat with an unlimited thirst for power and honor). Reading it today is a lot of fun and gives one a sense of that bygone era.
