Description

In newspaper-land a dull lie is seldom detected, but an interesting exaggeration drives an unimaginative rival to hysterical denunciations.

When a British politician pushes through a law that will allow political refugees to be sent back to their countries of origin, he becomes the target of the Four Just Men – a group of vigilantes who set out to the punish the people who consider themselves above the law. The British public watch eagerly on the sidelines as they wait to see if the Four Just Men will succeed in assassinating their Foreign Secretary.

The Four Just Men is the first of a series of excellent and highly entertaining detective thrillers by Edgar Wallace.
