Encounter Horatio Humberton, the trailblazing necrologist sleuth, in a collection that unveils the first half of this supernatural detective series. By day, the tall and gaunt Humberton orchestrates funerals, but by night, he delves into mysteries with a touch of the supernatural. As one of the most popular characters from Dime Detective, the eminent crime pulp rivaling the iconic Black Mask, Humberton's adventures offer a unique blend of the paranormal and crime-solving. This edition gathers the gripping final five cases from 1934-37, inviting readers into a world where the boundary between the living and the dead becomes eerily blurred.
