What an enigma Kate is! Whilst possessing all the finer womanly attributes, she is yet able to plot and schedule, to the very last detail, for the gang in Amberscombe Gardens (better known as "Crime Street") the most daring and wildly ambitious robberies imaginable, one of which goes as far as "stealing an entire and valuably-laden railway goods train," which just disappears into thin air. Yet, Kate is not so very dreadful! She just has something in her system, which eventually is found to be eradicable, as you will discover when you reach the end of this exciting book.

Richard Horatio Edgar Wallace (1875-1932) was a prolific British crime writer, journalist and playwright, who wrote 175 novels, 24 plays, and countless articles in newspapers and journals. Over 160 films have been made of his novels, more than any other author. In the 1920s, one of Wallace's publishers claimed that a quarter of all books read in England were written by him. He is most famous today as the co-creator of "King Kong", writing the early screenplay and story for the movie, as well as a short story "King Kong" (1933) credited to him and Draycott Dell. He was known for the J. G. Reeder detective stories, The Four Just Men, the Ringer, and for creating the Green Archer character during his lifetime.
