Prolific pulp fiction author Donald Barr Chidsey's long-running series about hard-boiled Miami cop Sgt. Wentworth L. McGarvey and his sidekick, Detective Morton, was one of the most popular series to see print in Detective Fiction Weekly magazine in the late 1930s, running over 30 installments. Never before in book form, the Morton & McGarvey series is finally collected in order, along with the original pulp magazine illustrations. Volume 1 contains the first five stories from when the series was originally running in Dime Detective magazine.
