Black Mask Audio Magazine, Volume 1: Classic Hard-Boiled Tales from the Original Black Mask

Tough detectives, rotten crooks and dangerous dames.

In the 1930s and '40s, Black Mask was the single most important magazine for the modern mystery field. In its pages writers such as Dashiell Hammett, Raymond Chandler, and Earl Stanley Gardner reshaped the established view of mystery fiction, creating the "hard-boiled" private eye. Now comes this series in which the toughest of tough detectives are resurrected from its pages in sonic dramatization from the award-winning Hollywood Theater of the Ear.

Stories included in this volume are Lost and Found by Hugh B. Cave, Pigeon Blood by Paul Cain, Rough Justice by Frederick Nebel, Black by Paul Cain, The Missing Mr. Lee by Hugh B. Cave, and Trouble Chaser by Paul Cain.
