Sinopsis

She's beautiful. She's charming. She's deadly.
When the captivating and seemingly innocent Jean Briggerland enters the lives of wealthy and unsuspecting men, disaster follows. Beneath her angelic appearance lies a ruthless mind, capable of manipulation, betrayal, and even murder.

In The Angel of Terror, Edgar Wallace, master of the classic crime thriller, weaves a fast-paced story of greed, cunning, and justice. As the body count rises, the question remains: Can anyone see through Jean's façade before it's too late?

First published in 1922, this novel showcases Wallace's trademark style—suspenseful twists, vivid characters, and a plot that keeps readers guessing until the final page.

"Wallace at his best—tense, unpredictable, and impossible to put down."
– The Guardian

"A superb example of the early 20th-century crime novel."
– The Times

    Wagon trains carrying immigrants along the Oregon Trail are falling prey to outlaws. Most families surrender their valuables and goods peacefully, but anybody brave enough to resist gets a bullet. The gang's latest victim was a wagon master who sought to protect his charges only to die in the dust. With the blood of good men being spilled and families being terrorized, Preacher and Jamie MacCallister volunteer to escort the next wagon train. 
     
     
      
    Preacher travels with the settlers while MacCallister trails along at a distance, scouting for trouble. Their odyssey across the unforgiving territory takes them through violent storms and into the sights of hostile Indians. Battered and weary, the travelers are no match for the blood-lusting, trigger-happy gang—and Preacher is unprepared to meet the one outlaw he never expected to see again . . .

    People say you get one life, but I've lived three. 
    I was born Ellen Hardy in 1900, dragged up in Queen Caroline's Yard, Norwich. 
    There was nothing royal about our yard, and Mum was no queen. 
    At six years old Mum sold me. I became Nellie Westrop, roaming the country in a showman's wagon, learning the art of the fair. 
    And I've been the infamous Queenie of Norwich, moving up in the world by any means, legal or not. 
    I've been heart broken, abandoned, bought and sold, but I've never, ever given up. 
    After all, it's not where you start that's important, but where you end up. 
    Based on a true story, Queenie of Norwich is the compelling tale of one remarkable girl's journey to womanhood. 
    Spanning the first half of the 20th century, Queenie's story is one of heartbreak and triumph, love and loss and the power of family.

    The entire Chinese city of Tientsin is under siege from within — the streets filled with rioting, arson, mass looting and murder. And all because the city's sacred idol, the Green God, has gone missing. Lieutenant Bill Mahone of Naval Intelligence is on a mission to find it. But he's walking a razor's edge — between worship and warfare, between a touch of heaven and a taste of bloody hell. What does a near-death experience sound like? Find out, as the audio version of The Green God gives new meaning to the word escapism — escape from a crazed mob, escape from the clutches of a torturer, escape from an early grave.
