The Phantom Detective #164 Audiobook
The Silent Killer
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!
 
Fighting to save thousands of teen-agers from drug addiction, the Phantom tackles a mysterious, deadly ring of dealers in despair!
 
Only two authors’ names ever appeared on the covers of The Phantom Detective Magazine as being responsible for the masked sleuth’s tales- G. Wayman Jones and Robert Wallace. These two men never existed, but were house names concealing the names of an actually extensive list of writers. Although other characters also had multiple writers, there may be reasons that so many contributed to the Phantom Detective. It is well known that multiple stories within the Phantom Detective series were originally intended for other characters but, for whatever reasons, were rewritten into Phantom Detective entries. It may be, however, that the number of authors for this particular series relates not only to its longevity, but also to The Phantom Detective being more or less a straightforward lawman, albeit in a mask. Other Pulp heroes took on lost races, psychotic madmen with plots to litter the streets of New York with thousands of bodies, or mysterious monsters and insane mad scientists. The Phantom Detective usually steered clear of such outlandish threats and focused more specifically on street level crimes. This more realistic take on a Pulp hero may have made the character easier for multiple authors to either write stories from beginning to end, or even to take tales they were already writing and simply rework them to fit as a Phantom Detective adventure. Regardless, the accessibility of the series made sure that Phantom Detective fans had 170 stories to read from a fantastic variety of authors.
 
The Silent Killer was originally published in the Winter 1952 issue of The Phantom Detective Magazine and is read with pulse pounding intensity by award winning voice actor Milton Bagby.
