The Ringer, a dangerous criminal believed to have died in Australia, turns up again in England, to the consternation of Scotland Yard. Maurice Meister, a crooked lawyer, has more reason than most to fear the master crook's return, but who can be sure of the elusive Ringer's real identity?
This play was the turning point in Edgar Wallace 's meteoric career from newspaper boy to dramatist and writer of best-selling fiction. Adapted from his novel of 1925. The Gaunt Stranger, the play scored an immediate success at Wyndham's Theatre, London, in May 1926.
