An unusal venture for Edgar Wallace, a humorous espionage book. Heine (no other name given) is the inept, vain, and entirely self-unaware boss of Germany's spy network in Britain during WW1.
Told in the first person by Heine, the book is really a series of (usually disastrous) episodes at various stages during the war. It was first published as a series of short stories during 1918, then in hardback in 1919.
This version was scanned from a disintegrating paperback edition c 1930 to rescue it before the crumbling brown pulp paper totally consumed itself. It uses the original cover from the paperback, which while detached was of higher quality paper.
