![]() | The Living Shadow (1931) (The first book in the Shadow: The Master of Darkness series) A novel by Maxwell Grant |
Maxwell Grant's The Living Shadow is the first of the famous stories that made a household phrase of "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!" Here is the is the sinister nemesis of crime in all his glory: swirling black cloak shrouding his body, black slouch-hat pulled low over his face, only a hawk-nose and two burning eyes visible beneath its brim, a forty-five automatic blazing death at the forces of villainy from each black gloved fist - while he makes a seemingly impossible escape as the crash of a burning building seems to spell certain death! In this celebrated novel, a decent young man named Harry Vincent is about to end his life over failed business ventures and the loss of his girl, when a mysterious figure in a dark limousine plucks him from the jaws of death and offers him a second chance to make good as a member of an secret network of crime-fighters. When he is captured by the very criminal gang he was sent to spy on, Harry Vincent's doom seems sealed - until the darkness of the room suddenly echoes with the eerie, mocking laughter of the Shadow!
