Produktbeschreibung
This carefully crafted ebook: ?The Door with Seven Locks (A British Classic Mystery)? is formatted for your eReader with a functional and detailed table of contents. Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was an English writer. As well as journalism, Wallace wrote screen plays, poetry, historical non-fiction, 18 stage plays, 957 short stories and over 170 novels, 12 in 1929 alone. More than 160 films have been made of Wallace´s work. Excerpt: ?He waited suggestively, but Lew Pheeney shook his head. ?I´m not telling. The story would give away a man who´s not a good fellow, and not one I admire; but I can´t let my personal feelings get the better of me, and you´ll have to go on guessing. And I´m not lying, I´ll tell you how it happened.? He gulped down a cup of hot coffee and pushed cup and saucer away from him. ?I don´t know this fellow who asked me to do the work ? not personally. He´s been in trouble for something or other, but that´s no business of mine. One night he met me, introduced himself, and I went to his house ? brr!? he shivered. ?Martin, a crook is a pretty clean man ? at least, all the crooks I know; and thieving´s just a game with two players; me and the police. If they snooker me, good luck to ´em! If I can beat them, good luck to me! But there´s some dirt that makes me sick, just makes my stomach turn over. When he told me the job he wanted me for, I thought he was joking??
