More About This Book

Overview

When several of the city's most respected citizens are inexplicably killed by what appear to be zombies, all Detective Terry Lane has to go on is a blue grey glove, a Haitian pharmacy bill for some very unusual drugs and a death threat from a mysterious stranger.Matters are soon complicated when a beautiful nightclub singer shows up who claims to have information that could solve the case, but whose motives are plainly suspect. Against his better judgement, Terry investigates her lead only to find himself sealed in a coffin en route to the next zombie murder-his own.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
A spree of inexplicable murders baffles Det. Terry Lane—until he stumbles upon proof that the victims were killed by their former servants-turned-zombies who have been brought back to life with the purpose of killing their employers. As Lane gets closer to the source, he too is targeted by the mastermind behind the murders and finds that he could be turned into one of the living dead. The unattributed narrator has all the drive, emphasis, and attitude of a classic suspense reader and provides listeners with a tension-filled atmosphere to enhance the story. Coupled with the full cast and sound effects, the production proves first rate. A Galaxy hardcover (Reviews, Feb. 22). (Feb.)
Fangoria Magazine
What you will find in DEAD MEN KILL, however, is a breezy horror/mystery where almost every sentence ends in an exclamation point (" 'Don't!' screamed Morton. 'Don't come near me! You're dead, man! Get away from me!' "). Readable in one sitting, DEAD MEN KILL is frightful fun from yesteryear.

Library Journal
A hardboiled detective, a beautiful nightclub singer, and a throng of murderous zombies share the stage in Dead Men Kill, originally published in Thrilling Detective (Jul. 1934). R.F. Daley, Jim Meskimen, Matt Scott, John Mariano, Jennifer Aspen, and Lori Jablons deliver expert performances in this production brought fully to life with such fantastic sounds as a zombie's unrelenting call of "I have come to kill you, Gordon," an owl's ominous hooting, and the urgent slamming of Det. Terry Lane's creaky sedan door. A thrill from start to finish; recommended for all.

Meet the Author

With 19 New York Times bestsellers and more than 230 million copies of his works in circulation, L. Ron Hubbard is among the most acclaimed and widely read authors of our time. As a leading light of American Pulp Fiction through the 1930s and '40s, he is further among the most influential authors of the modern age. Indeed, from Ray Bradbury to Stephen King, there is scarcely a master of imaginative tales who has not paid tribute to L. Ron Hubbard.

    Just ok

    Reads like a 50's detective novel. A bit slow, but still interesting enough to make you want to finish. Only 70 pages to the story and then a sneak preview to another story.

    I normally only like westerns -- but this was a fun story

    While I normally just like to read westerns, I was sent a copy of this book to read and found it a really fun, totally unlike other zombie stories you are likely to find -- or at least different from any I was familiar with.
    First off, it provides a "plausible" means of creating zombies and from my earlier research on Haiti, this story is pretty much right on the mark. That there is a hard boiled detective coupled with a dangerous dame, made for a great read from beginning to end.
