Police Constable Burnett was a handsome and romantic young man who had a penchant for writing love poems. But one of his poetical endeavours - and one worthy of the finest traditions of the Metropolitan Police Force - resulted in the untimely death of Mr Arthur Crater, the father of his ladyfriend. The Poetical Policeman is Casefile Number 1 which is also included in Casefile Numbers 1, 2, 3 and 4 from 'The Mind of Mr J G Reeder' by Edgar Wallace.

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'.

Mr J. G. Reeder, super-sleuth extraordinaire, is now working for the Public Prosecutor’s bureau and investigating the case of Sir James Tithermite’s wife who fell overboard from the Channel steamer crossing to Calais.

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. Reeder's techniques for solving cases are unique, most notably because he was "... a gentleman who liked to work in an office where the ticking of a clock was audible and the turning of a paper produced a gentle disturbance".
