CARDIGAN VOLUME TWO-FROM ALTUS PRESS!
The Complete Casebook of Cardigan, Volume 2: 1933
Authored by Frederick Nebel
The greatest series from the pages of Dime Detective Magazine is finally collected in four large editions. Running from 1931-37, Frederick Nebel’s P.I. Jack Cardigan was one of the main reasons for that magazine’s success as well as highly influential to the most popular hard-boiled writers of the day. Sadly, only a handful of the 44-installment series have ever been reprinted since their original appearances 80 years ago. This series collects the entire run.
Volume 2 continues the series and features the next 11 stories, complete, uncut, and with the original John Fleming Gould illustrations: “The Murder Cure” (January, 1933), “Me–Cardigan” (February, 1933), “Doorway to Danger” (March 1, 1933), “Heir to Murder” (April 1, 1933), “Dead Man’s Folly” (May 1, 1933), “Murder Won’t Wait” (May 15, 1933), “Chains of Darkness” (June 15-July 1, 1933), “Scrambled Murder” (July 15, 1933), “Death After Murder” (August 15, 1933), “Murder & Co.” (September 15, 1933) and “Murder a
la Carte” (November 15, 1933).
