The Law of the Four Just Men
By this point in the series the Just Men have become something close to private consultants in justice, and Leon Gonsalez takes the lead across these linked short stories. Each tale sets him a fresh problem: a poisoner beyond the reach of evidence, a fraud hiding behind respectability, a cruelty the law will not touch. Gonsalez studies faces, motives, and small human tells, then arranges an ending no court could ever hand down. Wallace keeps the pieces short and sharp, closer to clever moral puzzles than sprawling thrillers, and lets his vigilantes reason their way to each verdict.
