Dashiell Hammett created the character Sam Spade for his crime story The Maltese Falcon. Spade was a hard-boiled detective with cold detachment, a keen eye for detail, and an unflinching determination to exact his own justice. For most people, Spade is most closely associated with actor Humphrey Bogart, who played him in the third and most famous film version of The Maltese Falcon. In 1946 one of radio's top producers, William Spier, brought Sam Spade to the airwaves in a radio show starring newcomer Howard Duff.

Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar began in 1949 as a typical slam-bang detective series, and though consistently well written and acted, the series never really captured an enthusiastic audience. However, in the fall of 1955, Bob Bailey took over the title role; veteran director Jack Johnstone and writers John Dawson, Robert Ryf, and Les Crutchfield joined the production team; and the series was transformed into a quarter-hour, five-a-week strip show.

No bigger fad swept across postwar radio than that of the hard-boiled private detective - and nobody had more fun with their wink-and-nudge take on the genre than the producers, writers, and cast of The Adventures of Sam Spade. Dashiell Hammett's legendary private eye had a sardonic sense of humor, which wavy-haired, rugged-voiced Howard Duff played to perfection.

Yes!
Where does Nick Carter, Master Detective: Echoes of Death rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Wonderful stories! I'm familiar with some of the old radio shows, but this one was completely new and I love it! Very reminiscent of the old Perry Mason stories. Granted, Patsy is a bit slow on the uptake in most of these, but she seems to forget that she is supposed to be one step behind the boss and come across with a surprise every now and then. Remember, in that era a secretary was paid to make her boss feel pleased with himself, & Nick is quite good, really. They make a good team.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Haven't decided yet. Maybe I need a few more stories. ;)
What about Lon Clark’s performance did you like?
Very nice delivery! Rare to find such good voice acting! He does mispronounce a word occasionally, though.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Goodness, no! I want to make it last as long as possible, then listen again & mark my faves!
