Description:
 
“These stories still cut, still tear, still even shock … These guys went places maybe they shouldn’t and we love them for it.” – Harlan Coben.
 
Some writing has an edge that time just can’t dull.
Welcome to the world of pulp fiction.
Within these pages are the very best crime stories from the pulp magazines of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s.
These are stories of the mean streets of New York, Los Angeles and Chicago.
These are stories in which danger and death are always just around the corner.
These are the stories which created crime fiction as we know it today.
