Introduced by David Stuart Davies. How on earth did you piece
together all this? he asked in wonder. Mr Reeder shook his head
sadly. I have that perversion, he said. It is a terrible
misfortune. I see evil in everything. I have the mind of a
criminal. Let us introduce you to the enigmatic J. G. Reeder, a
timid, gentle middle-aged man who carries a furled up umbrella and
wears an old-fashioned flat-topped bowler hat. He is one of the
great unsung sleuths of mystery fiction, created by the prolific
Edgar Wallace, the King of Thrillers . Despite his insignificant
appearance, Reeder is a cold and ruthless detective who credits his
success to his criminal mind which allows him to solve a series of
complex and audacious crimes and outwit the most cunning of
villainous masterminds. This volume is a rich feast for crime
fiction fans, containing the first three volumes in the Reeder
canon: two novels, Room 13 and Terror Keep; and the classic
collection of short stories, The Mind of J. G. Reeder.
