Edgar Wallace was a prolific British writer and journalist, born on April 1, 1875, in London and raised in near poverty. Over the course of his career, he developed a reputation for writing fast-paced detective and suspense novels, as well as for his work as a war correspondent. Wallace showed early promise as a writer, although his initial pursuit of fame was through poetry. However, it was his transition to the crime genre that solidified his legacy, penning engrossing tales that captured the imaginations of readers worldwide. His journalistic background lent a certain authenticity to his prose, with an emphasis on clarity and engagement. One of Wallace's notable contributions to literature was 'The Keepers of the King's Peace' (1917), a book which not only reflected his refined narrative skills but also his capacity to blend intrigue with adventure. Wallace's literary style often involved creating enigmatic characters and intricate plots filled with unexpected twists, trademarks that ensured a dedicated readership.

Today, Wallace is regarded as one of the foremost figures in the early 20th-century British thriller genre, and his works continue to be enjoyed for their timeless thrills and suspense.
