Read by David Horovitch

Mr JG Reeder's novel methods bring the criminals of 1920s London to justice. 

Created by Edgar Wallace, he is a uniquely English detective. An apparent fuddy-duddy working in some obscure capacity in the Public Prosecutor's office, he actually has a razor-sharp intellect and is a super-sleuth. 

Mr JG Reeder solves his mysteries because he fully understands the "criminal mind". 

Abridged by Neville Teller.  

Producer:  Gemma Jenkins 

Made for BBC Radio 7 and first broadcast in October 2007.
