Wallace, Edgar - The Law of the Four Just Men (1921) aka Again the Three Just Men
Short stories relating the further adventures of the Four Just Men -- or rather of two of them, since one has retired to Spain and another is dead. It is Gonsalez and Manfred who remain in England -- with occasional side-trips -- pursuing the ends of justice in these ten entertaining stories. There is some slight detection and liberal humour. The rough-and-ready nature of their self-administered 'justice' may offend some modern readers, but the Saint and Bulldog Drummond have both done worse in their time. Light entertainment.
The Law of the Four Just Men should soon be available from Gutenberg Australia.
