Red Aces
by Edgar Wallace
J. G. Reader is a battered man with red hair and weak eyes. However, his extraordinary mind is sharp with a rapier. "Red Aces," the fourth and final of Edgar Wallace's JG Reeder books, depicts an unsafe train with a fluffy umbrella in a three-novel-length adventure. Here are three exciting chapters omitted from the case book. Red aces about a man who plays high and lives in fear; Kennedy the Con Man reveals a flawless mask devoid of the groom, and finally the case of Joe Attimer , a completely intriguing mystery about the murder on the London Thames. Vintage Wallace doesn't have great depths, but Wallace has a lot of humor and a lot of exciting events along his beloved Thames.
