New Wildside Press freebie for Tuesday:
Draw the Curtain Close by the late Thomas B. Dewey (
Thrilling Detective profile), 1st in his "Mac" detective series starring the eponymous PI, a vintage mystery adventure thriller originally published in 1947.
"Call me Mac... I'm just a guy. I go around and get in jams and then try to figure a way out of them. I don't make very much money and most people insult me one way or another... I'm a fairly good shot with small arms, show-thiinking but thorough, and very dirty in a clinch."
Mac gets into a jam this time even when he turns a job down. And all because of a book, an ex-gangster's patrician wife, and a red-headed cabaret doll. When all the blood is washed off and the smoke clears away, Mac has a murderer pinned down—but he doesn't earn much more than a reputation as the most indestrictible man in the business.
For fans of the very popular Warhammer sci-fantasy RPG franchise who also want to load up their Android devices with DRM-free games:
