The India-Rubber Men

Page history last edited by Jon 14 years, 12 months ago

Wallace, Edgar - The India-Rubber Men (1929)

 

A classic Wallace, stitching together his favourite themes with enough humour and vigour to keep the reader intrigued till the very end. John Wade is the young Scotland Yard inspector, Lila Smith the beautiful orphan with a mysterious past. There is a a criminal mastermind, a long-standing gang of jewel thieves -- the India-Rubber Men, who wear gasmasks and rubber gloves, and carry gas bombs to stave off pursuit -- and a smattering of Chinese bandits and American mobsters. Through it all runs the Thames, and there is even time for a little excursion out of London to its upper reaches in Oxfordshire. The mixture as before, expertly blended.

 

The India-Rubber Men should soon be available from Gutenberg Australia.

 

Jon.
