vigilantism justified
It was entertaining to read Flash around this (I started Flash on Saturday and finished it this morning) where Flash has to deal with the ethics of power. This is a series of stories showing what happens when some people take the law into their own hands. In these two of the four just men show, with a third retired in Spain and the fourth dead. There are smatterings of racism, the pseudo-science of physiognomy and a lot of two older men pursuing those who have escaped the legal system.
Also published as Again the Three Just Men (which makes a lot of sense) in 1921 it shows a feeling of how justice is paramount and that there was a possibility of a great new world.
The eugenics train is not a comfortable ride but overall for the period it's interesting, the stories are snappy and bite-sized but I enjoyed it.
