"Murder Town"

 "I have spoken at length because I had need to linger here. While I have been recounting facts, other work has been accomplished. Those who represent the law have arrived to take charge of culprits."

- The Shadow


I read this last year and found it a fun and baffling mystery.  A train wreck.  An injured Shadow.  Murder run amok.  Okay, maybe a bit of hyperbole on that last one.  Still, a great story from 1936.  Crack open this fine vintage of pulp and savor the intricacies that only Walter B. Gibson could concoct.  Cheers.
