Описание:
When Malcolm Hay, a young British engineer, is sent to work for a Ukrainian-English oil company right before the first World War, he becomes a unique spectator of the political tensions of the time. After he befriends Kensky, a wealthy, elderly, Jewish-Russian man, and Grand-Duchess Irene Yaroslav, his life is changed by the gift Kensky has entrusted him with The Book of All-Power.
The book, which is said to be able to make any man do the holder's bidding and holds the secret to total power, is sought after by many, but few would suspect the engineer to have it in his possession. Years later Malcolm finds himself back in Russia, where he reconnects with old acquaintances, each finding themselves trapped in the country and enemies to the state. After her old butler gains prominence in the Russian Revolution, Irene is kept as his servant. Meanwhile, Malcolm is kept as a prisoner, accused of being an enemy to the revolution. With the help of a mutual friend and American gangster, Cherry Bim, and brandishing the all-powerful book, can Malcolm and Irene escape their imprisonment, and flee from Russia before it's too late?
This high-stakes thriller joins the impressive and respected catalog of Edgar Wallace, taking readers on an adventure. With the compelling characters, powerful artifact, and exciting setting, The Book of All Power is sure to keep readers engaged until the very last word. Wallace is considered to be one of the greats of 19th science fiction and crime thriller genre, and defends his title by embellishing The Book of All Power with twists and unique perspectives on the fall of the Russian autocracy.

Описание:
From the coast of West Africa to the streets of Europe, the peculiar Augustus "Bones" Tibbetts is unknowingly pulled into various financial plots and schemes. As part of Edgar Wallace's Sanders of the River collection, Bones in London follows the endearing military man as he haplessly juggles business and politics.
Augustus Tibbetts, also known as Bones, has left the coast of Africa for the bustling streets of England. As the new managing director of Schemes Ltd., he suddenly finds himself at the center of multiple mishaps. Along with his trusted assistant Miss Winfield, the duo encounters questionable characters and unexpected ploys. Despite the circumstance, Bones stays true to his nature and finds a way to come out on top.
Wallace uses the affable protagonist to highlight corrupt business practices within London. It is an issue that affects both upper and lower-class citizens making it relatable to a broader audience. With Bones' unique perspective and eccentric voice, he balances the dark tone with genuine humor and heart.
Bones in London is one of many entries in the author's vast catalog, which includes Bones (1915), Lieutenant Bones (1918), and Bones of the River (1923). Each book is a serialized version of short stories originally published in The Weekly Tale-Teller, The Windsor Magazine, and The 20-Story Magazine. For more than a century, these classic titles have delivered mystery and intrigue for readers of all ages. Wallace's work was integral to the creation of contemporary crime drama.
With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Bones in London is both modern and readable.
