Must be some pretty large bills.  A thousand One Thousand Dollar bills takes up a lot of space.

Ya know, if they don't sign the note how can you trust them?  Again, another chance to get out from under the vapid trance that Margo has over Lamont.  Just sayin'...

Haven't the bad guys heard of tape.  Who's gonna pay for the damage to the door?!

 Really?  Where is the compartment with the cloak and hat?  Sigh.  Margo could be history by the time... ah, I get it.  Very well played, Mr. Cranston.

"No Time For Murder"

 Modern shmodern... ugly is ugly.  And this cover is ugly.  However, it seems that this novel (sans Margo Lane) could easily be a 1930s top notch adventure.  It's nice to know that there are still some gems as the series stumbles toward the finish line.  I look forward to reading this one.

"Fountain of Death"

 The Shadow visits a... health spa?  Yep, so come drink from the Sapphire Springs and have yourself a relaxing few hours with Margo, Shrevvy and a host of others who need the healing waters to do their thing.

"The Three Brothers"

 

"Harry Vincent and Moe Shrevnitz picked up the sprawled form.  Whether The Shadow was alive or dead, they were carrying him from the public eye."

A so-so cover.  I just don't feel that Gladney captured the essence of The Shadow the way that Rozen did.  He went from a "weird creature of the night" to just a guy in a hat and cloak.  I like the concept and composition, just not the execution.  Maybe some dramatic shadows would have helped.

"Awready on my way, Burbank."

"Meetcha like usual, right?"

"But you know, Chief... I been thinking.  Us agents, we work pretty  hard for you.  All hours... no vacations... don't you think maybe it's time we form a union...?

"It's not me talking, Moe.  It's Mankind."
