The Just Men of Cordova


Read by Atul Sharma

(4.9 stars; 11 reviews)

In “The Just Men of Cordova (1917)”, European financiers are dying conveniently from London to Cordova, victims of a mysterious poison that the police have failed to identify. In his earlier book, Edgar Wallace’s Four Just Men (1905) traveled the globe meting out vigilante justice. Renowned for their cunning, tenacity, lock breaking skills, and mastery of disguise, they operate outside the law, where their lethal brand of justice strikes fear into the hearts of their prey. But just who are they and who is assisting them?

From the golden age of detective fiction, Edgar Wallace was a prolific author with over 170 novels to his credit, including King Kong. More than 160 films have been made of his works, and a publisher once claimed that a quarter of all books read in England at the time were written by him. - Summary by ASharma (5 hr 15 min)

There's no such thing as a just 'man'. All men are evil missogynist who only think of predation, rape, and BIPOC oppression
