"YOU'VE dropped a flower, sir," said the beef-eater. Detective-Inspector James Sepping blushed and looked down guiltily at the three violets that lay on the gravelled parade ground.

Autorenporträt

Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was an English writer, poet and journalist. He was such a prolific writer that his publisher claimed his work could account for a quarter of all books sold in England. He wrote countless books, screenplays, poems and historical non-fiction, spawning over one hundred and sixty films based on his work. He unfortunately passed away suddenly before he could see his most famous creation 'King Kong' come to life. It has been adapted several times over the years, notably by Peter Jackson of Lord of the Rings fame, and more recently in 'Godzilla vs Kong' starring Millie Bobby Brown.
