The Phantom Detective #170 Audiobook
Murder’s Agent
by Robert Wallace
Read by Milton Bagby
 
 
Forged in war, The Phantom Detective wages a one-man battle on crime! Solving impossible mysteries and delivering his own justice, he is the underworld’s masked nightmare!
 
The girl was blameless — but she had to be slain because she once knew a hood. It was part of the business-as-usual policy of the underworld — a policy pursued in spite of the fact that their leaders had vanished! And only the underworld’s masked nemesis could solve the mystery and keep her alive. But can The Phantom Detective himself even evade death this time?
 
The release of Street and Smith’s Shadow magazine paved the way for what fans and collectors today refer to as the Hero Pulps, those magazines featuring heroic leads who were extraordinary in some form or fashion. Ned Pines was the man behind a publishing company that went under many names during its existence. Known at different times as Better, Standard, and Thrilling Publications, it’s the company’s tenure as Thrilling that saw the birth of one of Pulp’s greatest heroes-The Phantom Detective! Taking a cue from the success of Street & Smith’s The Shadow magazine, the first to feature a lead hero, Pines imagined that following suit might prove lucrative for his own endeavor. Putting this intent into action, Thrilling Publications released the first issue of The Phantom Detective magazine in February 1933, just a scant thirty or so days before Street & Smith delivered another soon to be legend, Doc Savage in his own magazine. Keeping up with both his predecessor and the hero that followed him by a month, The Phantom Detective ran in his own magazine for 170 issues, just behind the other two characters’ achievements. Pines’ masked sleuth also set a record the other two did not, his magazine being published for a total of twenty years!
 
‘Murder’s Agent’ was originally published in the Summer 1953 issue of The Phantom Detective Magazine and is read with pulse pounding intensity by award winning voice actor Milton Bagby.
