Edwin Sandeman

In the novel A Pocket Full of Rye, Sir Edwin Sandeman is the doctor of Rex Fortescue. He has a practice in Harley Street. When Rex is taken ill at the beginning of the novel, Miss Griffith finds Sir Edwin listed in the private address book, and calls him.

Sir Edwin comes to the office of Consolidated Investments Trust, and meets Dr Isaacs of Bethnal Green in the elevator. Both of them agree that Rex's sudden illness is not due to natural causes.
