Description
Manhattan’s sharpest gossip columnist tangles with brawlers, triggermen, and dames
The
most important people in the world come to Broadway—to eat in
restaurants, dance in nightclubs, and die in rain-slicked back alleys.
Whatever the big names are doing, Jerry Tracy hears about it—and tells
the world in his infamous Daily Planet column. As quick with his
typewriter as he is with a .45, Tracy can break a nose as easily as he
breaks a news story. But beneath his hard exterior, this columnist has a
kind heart, and a sense of justice that will make him do crazy things
for a woman in trouble, or a friend with a murder rap hanging over his
head.
Featuring every Jerry Tracy story ever published in Black Mask,
this collection is an invaluable compendium of one of early noir’s most
original heroes. Written in machine gun prose that would make Damon
Runyon proud, these stories describe a man whose words are tough—and
whose fists are even tougher.
