The Shadow #16

City of Crime / Shadow Over Alcatraz

by Maxwell Grant

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow Knows!

The Master of Darkness returns in two high-voltage pulp thrillers by Walter B. Gibson. First, Lamont Cranston enters a "City of Crime" to bring the shadow of justice to hidden plotters. Then, a near-fatal attack on Kent Allard sets The Shadow on the trail of a criminal Napoleon who plots an assault on Alcatraz to launch a criminal empire.

This collectors item volume reprints both classic pulp covers by George Rozen and all the original interior art by legendary illustrator Edd Cartier. Walter Gibson reveals secrets about The Shadow's true identity to pulp-historian Will Murray, while series editor Anthony Tollin examines the mystery behind the 1939 disappearance of cover artist George Rozen.
