The Complete Cases of Bill Brent, Volume 4

Lora Lorne is Bill Brent's cleverest disguise. By day the gruff, no-nonsense reporter answers love-sick readers in the Recorder's advice column; by trade he's a hard-boiled sleuth who wades into murder, blackmail, and heartbreak with equal parts cynicism and charm.

In The Complete Cases of Bill Brent, Volume 4, Frederick C. Davis brings the series to its dramatic close. This volume gathers the final installments that complete Brent's sixteen-story run from the pages of Dime Detective (1941-1946), sending him into capers that pulse with wartime tension, pulpy romance, and the quick, economical plotting that made Davis a staple of the crime pulps.

Lean, fast, and quietly ruthless, Bill Brent dispenses practical counsel and ruthless justice in equal measure. For readers who love sharp dialogue, twisty mystery, and a hero who's as comfortable behind a typewriter as he is in a brawl, this concluding volume delivers the satisfying finish every pulp addict has been waiting for.
