Overview

The Forgotten Detectives: Volume 1 revives three of the most iconic sleuths from the golden age of mystery - Bulldog Drummond, Boston Blackie, and Violet Strange - in a richly atmospheric anthology of adventure, espionage, and intrigue. In ""Bulldog Drummond - The Original Spy Thriller Returns,"" Captain Hugh Drummond's boredom with civilian life ends the moment a cryptic newspaper advertisement leads him into a labyrinth of coded dispatches, vanishing scientists, and a secret brotherhood known only as The Black Carnation Society. From fog-choked streets and clandestine dinners to the perilous Zeppelin Vaults beneath London, Drummond faces an enemy determined to remake Europe through science and terror. ""Boston Blackie - Master of Shadows"" plunges America's smoothest ex-thief back into a world he thought he'd left behind. When a priceless diamond vanishes during a high-society gala, suspicion falls squarely on Blackie. To clear his name, he must outwit both the police and the underworld-where every ally may be a traitor and every secret has a price. Finally, in ""Violet Strange - Society's Secret Sleuth,"" a brilliant young woman hides her detective genius behind the guise of a fashionable socialite. Between drawing-room scandals and coded letters, Violet unearths the truth that power and deception walk hand in hand in New York's glittering elite. Filled with daring escapes, clever twists, and timeless charm, The Forgotten Detectives: Volume 1 celebrates the heroes who inspired generations of mystery fiction-restored, reimagined, and ready to thrill a new age of readers.
