Bücher von W. T. Ballard

One of the most popular series to appear in the pages of the greatest detective magazine of all time-Black Mask-is finally back in print. Running for nearly 30 installments, author W.T. Ballard chronicled the adventures of Hollywood troubleshooter Bill Lennox-employee of the prominent movie studio, General-Consolidated Pictures. Not quite a detective, Lennox's escapades often called for him to keep the Hollywood stars out of trouble and General-Consolidated out of the headlines. These tales exhibit a flavor of authenticity for 1930s-era Hollywood, as the author worked as a scriptwriter and producer during that timeframe. This edition collects the first seven stories, many of which have never before been reprinted. Also including an introduction by James L. Traylor.
