Publisher's Summary

Seeing justice done in your own way of thinking is not the wisest path to follow. However, it was indeed how one individual managed his life. He did it in such a way that criminals at all levels feared him, as did Scotland Yard as they tried to put a halt to his actions. The Yard itself hadn’t the slightest idea of what he looked like because this man, who came to be known as The Ringer, had a baffling way of disguising himself.

On the surface it seemed his actions could be beneficial to the law abiding world. However, The Ringer didn’t limit himself to the so-called “bad” guys, but would sometimes kill anyone he looked on as targets for his personal vengeance.

He had various encounters with a crafty and very unorthodox lawman named Bliss, as well as Alan Wembury, a newcomer to the legal enforcement world. It’s a strange story in many ways as you have an opportunity to listen to what took place.
