the Lost Lagoon and Other Tales from Pulps

Four rip-roaring tales from the golden age of pulp magazines sweep readers from the steaming reefs of the South Pacific to the gilded sanctum of a master criminal, and across the salt-stained centuries of high-seas adventure.On a forgotten island where white traders and native islanders eye each other warily, gin and greed brew a deadly storm. In a windowless tapestried lair, a cold mastermind orchestrates crime with the precision of a symphony until something unforeseen disturbs the music. On the wharves of colonial Charles Town, a notorious buccaneer strides ashore to settle a score with a redcoat colonel, and far out on the indigo deep, a brigantine duels a King's corvette through smoke and splinter, a grim talisman lashed to the masthead.Salt spray, gunpowder, and shadow conspire in this lively quartet-it's vintage adventure storytelling at full sail!
