Lee, Judith. Judith Lee was created by Richard Marsh (Sam Briggs) and appeared in twenty-two stories and two short story collections from 1911 to 1916, beginning with “The Man Who Cut Off My Hair” (The Strand Magazine, Aug. 1911).

Judith Lee is a lip reader. Her mother is deaf and her father is a teacher of the deaf and mute, and Judith taught herself lip reading and teaches it to others professionally. With this skill, training in jujitsu, and a certain amount of inquisitiveness and native wit, Lee has an exceptional amount of success in capturing criminals. She has a good reputation among criminals as well; one of them calls her “the most dangerous thing in England.”
