Description
Edgar Wallace, the original author of King Kong and hundreds of classic detective stories, science fiction, and adventure novels, created The Avenger as a page-turning thriller about the mysterious death of Francis Elmer, a dark secret, and a film set. The discovery of a mysterious note signed “Hunter of Heads” illuminates the chase for the murderer, and a series of disappearances prompts the courteous detective, Captain Mike Brixan, to hunt the hunter in a desperate race against time. A classic crime thriller by a master of cinematic storytelling, who sold millions of copies in his time.
FLAME TREE 451: From mystery to crime, from supernatural phenomena to horror and fantasy, and science fiction, Flame Tree 451 offers a healthy diet of werewolves and mechanical men, bloodthirsty vampires, wicked villains, mad scientists, secret worlds, lost civilizations, and escapist fantasies. Discover a magazine of stories collected especially for the science fiction reader. Each book features a brand new biography and a new glossary of literary, Gothic, and Victorian terms.
Incredible titles and a wide range of authors are synonymous with the Flame Tree Publishing brand.
