Edgar Wallace
Paperback
(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Sept. 17, 2015)
English crime writer, journalist, novelist, screenwriter, and playwright. He wrote 175 novels, 24 plays, and numerous articles. In the 1920s, one of Wallace's publishers claimed that a quarter of all books read in England were written by him. He was known during his lifetime for the J. G. Reeder detective stories, The Four Just Men, The Ringer, and for creating the Green Archer character. He is most famous today as the co-creator of King Kong. In 1911 his Congolese stories were published in a collection called Sanders of the River, which became a bestseller. This Book: The new managing director of Schemes Ltd. has an elegant London office and a theatrically dressed assistant. However Bones, as he is better known, is bored. Luckily there is a slump in the shipping market and it is not long before Joe and Fred Pole pay Bones a visit. They are totally unprepared for Bones' unnerving style of doing business, unprepared for his unique style of innocent and endearing mischief.
