# Spaghetti Jones — The Law of the Four Just Men character guide

> Spaghetti Jones in The Law of the Four Just Men by Edgar Wallace.

**Role:** supporting

**Also known as:** Mr. Spaghetti Jones, Mr. Jones, Jones, Spaghetti

**First appearance:** 0002-the-man-who-lived-at-clapham

## Snapshot

A flashy racecourse tough in a green-and-white bow tie who slashes a man's face with a penknife and calls him a naughty boy.

## Who they are

Jones dresses like a music-hall idea of a gentleman—diamond rings, cable chain, violently yellow boots—and enforces his will over a ring of frightened men with a manicurist's calm. His violence is casual and precise, delivered mid-sentence while he studies his nails, and Leon watches the whole performance from a nearby seat with the thrill of a collector finding a rare specimen. He is the kind of criminal the Four understand instinctively: petty, brutal, and utterly certain of his own importance.
