Mr J G Reeder, a brilliant and quietly unassuming detective, is a middle aged man whose speciality for more than twenty years has been to deal exclusively with bank robbers and forgers. "I see evil in everything," he declares, "… in dying rose bushes, in horseshoes - in poetry even. I have the mind of a criminal. It is deplorable!" In these four casefiles, The Poetical Policeman, The Treasure Hunt, The Troupe, and The Stealer of Marble, the sheer genius of Mr Reeder shines forth.

The case that ingenious detective Mr J G Reeder is working on is more than just a case. It is a suitcase. And the suitcase in question is "... a handsome article ... no maker's name was visible on the inside, or owner's initials on its glossy lid." The woman who had carried the case "... must have the strength of a navvy ..." Mr Reeder has to find out about the contents of the case and discover more about its carrier, 'Mrs Jackson'.

The Treasure Hunt is Casefile Number two which is also included in Casefile Numbers one, two, and three from The Mind of Mr J G Reeder by Edgar Wallace.

Hot on the trail of a troupe of diamond and emerald embezzlers comes super sleuth Mr J. G. Reeder, Edgar Wallace's master creation of a detective who confesses to having the mind of a criminal.
