| Summary, etc. | "Red aces: Being three cases of Mr. Reeder" by Edgar Wallace is a collection of detective stories written in the early 20th century. It follows the mild, methodical investigator J.G. Reeder as he untangles coolly executed crimes rooted in money, fraud, and murder around London. The first case pivots on a reclusive man’s death, cryptic playing-card clues, and the fraught ties among bank clerk Kenneth McKay, the enigmatic Margot Lynn, and polished clubman Rufus Machfield. The opening of the book sets a snowy, ominous scene: Kenneth, desperately in love with Margot, grows suspicious after seeing her with an older man and then receives her abrupt farewell. That night a lawyer and a mounted policeman find the battered body of a recluse, Wentford, on a country lane; Reeder arrives, traces the trail to Wentford’s fortified cottage, discovers two aces pinned to the door, evidence of a violent struggle and burnt diaries, and finds Margot inside, terrified and claiming secretarial ties to the dead man. While the policeman later turns up shot dead, Reeder and Inspector Gaylor lie in wait at the cottage and flush an intruder who escapes through a window. The investigation widens to the bank: £600 withdrawn from Wentford’s account by a veiled “lady” is traced via banknotes to Kenneth, who admits only that he jealously followed Margot to the house; Reeder also uncovers French banknotes in a safe and a memo linking the victim to Kenneth’s father, George McKay. Parallel threads reveal Machfield’s discreet gambling rooms and his associate Ena Burslem, whom Reeder pointedly identifies. The section closes with Margot, under Reeder’s quiet pressure, conceding that Kenneth entered the house shortly after she arrived and with Reeder insisting she keep the keys to a safe-deposit box her uncle had entrusted to her.
