# Frank Fellowe — The Just Men of Cordova character guide

> Frank Fellowe in The Just Men of Cordova by Edgar Wallace.

**Role:** major

**Also known as:** Fellowe, young Fellowe

**First appearance:** 0000-i-three-men-of-cordova

## Snapshot

Gagged, handcuffed, and offered two hundred pounds to forget what he knows, Frank Fellowe refuses — and finds four masked strangers waiting at the boardroom table.

## Who they are

Fellowe is the young man Black's men drag into a cellar-house and try to buy or bury, and his clear, unwavering eyes answer the proposition before his mouth can. He is offered the choice between a bribe and a chained existence in a donjon-keep substitute, and his refusal sets the trap that the Four Just Men spring on their host. His stubbornness matters because it forces the hidden tribunal into the open and makes the hunted financier feel hunted.
