Dear Sri and Holmesians,
I remember reading Edgar wallace a long time ago. JG Reeder is the
guy who has side whiskers and falls in love witha girl and ends up
marrying her, is'nt it?I remember " Four just Men" very well indeed.
I don't think there is a series of books involving JG Reeder . We can
discuss it though
