The Complete Cases of Corpus Delicti Mort, Volume 1

Defense attorney Clarence Darrow Mort, an unkempt habitué of seedy bars, was known familiarly, if not affectionately, as "Corpus Delicti" Mort. A mainstay of the page of mid-1940s issues of Dime Detective magazine, Mort was yet another of the quirky characters which editor Ken White avidly placed in his hard-boiled pulp magazine.




This collection contains the first half of the C. D. Mort stores, all by Julius Long: "C. D. for Corpus Delicti," "No Minimum for Murder," "Loaded for Murder," "Corpus Delicti de Luxe," "Mostly for Murder," and "Murder Under Foot."
