The Four Just Men is a detective thriller published in 1905 by the British writer Edgar Wallace. The eponymous quartet are a trio of three friends George Manfred, Leon Gonsalez, and Raymond Poiccart who recruit a fourth, Thery, in their campaign to punish wrong-doers who are beyond the reach of the law. After The Great War, the four men are pardoned on condition that they remain within the law and continue to operate a legitimate detective agency. But the four men take it upon themselves to kill for the greater cause of justice--in theory, those who are "beyond the law" like government figures, lawmakers, and other figures powerful enough to thwart justice. The just men consider themselves patriots and defenders of law and order who must act to protect society. The Four Just Men was adapted as a silent film in 1921, a film in 1939 and as a British television series in 1959. Author Edgar Wallace is the co-creator of King Kong.
