When a bunch of small-time crooks decide to try and steal a diamond mine, Sanders must decide whether he’s up to the job, or whether to hand it over to someone more qualified.
Full of twists and turns, ‘The River of Stars’ sees our hero at his most vulnerable and introduces a bevy of fascinating characters.
A film adaptation of ‘The River of Stars’ was made in 1921.
This is a superb read for fans of the ´Sanders of the River´ series.
Prior to the success of ´King Kong´, which he co-created, Edgar Wallace published a selection of tales about Commissioner Sanders and his adventures in Africa under British rule.
Born in London, Edgar Wallace (1875 – 1932) was an English writer so prolific that his publisher claimed that he was responsible for a quarter of all books sold in England.
Leaving school at the age of 12, Wallace made his first steps into the literary world by selling newspapers on the corner of Fleet Street.
He worked as a war correspondent after joining the army at age 21, which honed his writing abilities. This led to the creation of his first book ‘The Four Just Men.’
Wallace is best remembered as the co-creator of ‘King Kong,’ which has been adapted for film 12 times (most notably directed by ‘Lord of the Rings’ director, Peter Jackson, and starring Jack Black and Naomi Watts).
However, he leaves behind an extensive body of work, including stories such as ‘The Crimson Circle’ and ‘The Flying Squad’.
