Reviews for Jack O' Judgment
10 ratings1 review
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5There is a mystery in this book but it isn't your typical sort. Col. Dan Boundary runs one of the most pervasive and ugly criminal organizations in England and the police are having a hard time getting enough hard evidence to convict him. But Jack O' Judgment, a masked and caped figure, doesn't need courtroom proof - he will extract his own justice. But who is Jack O' Judgment? That is the mystery.I have noticed before in Edgar Wallace (in the "Four Just Men" series for example) that he appears to advocate vigilantism. Unlike most early 20th century crime/mystery writers, his books don't necessarily affirm that society's justice systems (police, lawyers, courts) will prevail and uphold the good over the evil.
