The Nine Bears is a 1910 British thriller novel by Edgar Wallace. It was originally written in serial form before being published as a novel.[1] After signing a contract with American firm Dodd Mead, Wallace provided them with what effectively an extended version of this story with the villain's name changed to Poltavo, which was published by them as The Other Man.[1] It was the first in a series of books featuring Wallace's fictional Scotland Yard detective Elk, whose rank varies during the series. It is also known by the alternative title The Cheaters.
