In the midst of an epidemic, Commissioner Sanders hears of a local woman with a remarkable gift that could transcend the limits of modern medicine. He, along with his trusted advisors, examine a series of miraculous cases tied to this extraordinary figure. In The Keepers of the King’s Peace, Sanders embraces the unknown encountering new and surprising obstacles.

Within the Belgian Congo, stories of a woman healer called M'lama are spreading among the native people. Soon, military men begin to question their validity and M’lama’s powerful influence. Commissioner Sanders seeks to uncover the truth about her rumored ability to cure the sick and even raise the dead. It’s a curious expedition that blurs the line between the physical and supernatural realm.

With The Keepers of the King’s Peace, Edgar Wallace highlights a cultural clash between Africans and Europeans during the colonial period. Sanders and his crew must step outside their comfort zones to fully explore native customs and spiritual practices. This illuminating story was originally published in The Windsor Magazine in 1917 as an entry in the Sanders of the River series.
