Total Pulp Experience. These exciting pulp adventures have been beautifully reformatted for easy reading as an eBook and features every story, every editorial, and every column of the original pulp magazine.
Action, action and action... in spades! Nothing subtle about it, each issue of Detective Short Stories featured ten-to-twelve relentless, shameless, fierce action tales. Manvis Publications, the same publisher who brought you Ka-Zar, Amazing Detective Cases, American Sky Devils, Uncanny Stories, Six-Gun Western, Marvel Science Stories and many others, brought out the first issue of Detective Short Stories in August of 1937 and continued dishing the pulp thrills until the magazine folded with the October 1943 issue, yet another victim of wartime paper shortages. For twenty-five issues, readers got a wallop of exciting adventure for their thin dime. Detective Short Stories returns in these vintage pulp tales, reissued for today’s readers in electronic format.
Table of Contents:
Show Me The Way To The Morgue

O’Meara was stiff in the morgue, and the girl with the nice eyes kidnapped... which meant private dick Danny Wehre was going to spend his two weeks’ vacation on a manhunter roundelay.
Mood For Murder
By Don Cameron
Shoot a guy, okay — but don’t ever rat on him!
The Gun-moll Venus

This was one murder Beltzer’s curvaceous gun-moll wouldn’t fix, at least that’s what I figured up to when I looked into the business end of her .45!
Decoy For The Corpse

The Killer
By Paul Ellsworth Triem

Murder Is A Racket
By Robert O. Kenyon
The Cops didn’t want him for killing a guy — but they were going to want the guy for killing him!
