Murder Trail

Awesome cover.  Sure, there are perspective problems with the door of the safe but it gets the point across.  This is what I would have expected of The Shadow, popping out at the crook, freezing him in his tracks.  The sibilant tones of The Dark Eagle's laughter chilling all who would try and break the law.  Great early illustration for a great early novel.  I have read this one, albeit it was the paperback reprint from the 70's so I'm sure it was abridged.  Looking forward to Sanctum Press reprinting this one.
