Over the course of his career, Wallace published over 170 books, including 'The Just Men of Cordova'(1917), which is part of his acclaimed series featuring 'The Four Just Men'. Renowned for his fast-paced storytelling and engaging plots, Wallace's work in the thriller genre was characterized by unexpected twists and turns that captivated readers worldwide. His literary style often involved intricate plotting and the theme of justice, which is central to 'The Just Men of Cordova', where the protagonists are vigilantes delivering their brand of justice. Despite receiving little formal education, Wallace showed a natural flair for writing, initially reporting on crime and military affairs before transitioning to fiction. Edgar Wallace's contribution to crime and adventure fiction had a significant influence on the development of the thriller genre during the early 20th century. Wallace passed away suddenly from undiagnosed diabetes in Hollywood in 1932, while working on the screenplay for 'King Kong', a testament to his wide-ranging creative talents. Today, Wallace is remembered not only for his extensive bibliography but also for his role in shaping the modern crime thriller.
