Private Eye-Lashes: Radio's Lady Detectives

Author: Jack French
Honors:
Genres:
Publisher: Bear Manor Media
In this book, Jack French relates fascinating facts about the famous lady crime-solvers (Nora Charles, Candy Matson, Jane Sherlock) but he also tracks down the obscure ones (Susan Bright, Helen Holden, and The Lady in Blue, etc.) He traces the origin of these radio series, whether in pulp fiction, film, mystery novels, or comic books.

“Jack French has brought to the foreground many of the ladies who worked alongside their more famous male partners, and those who worked alone, in relative obscurity and were long forgotten. We learn about who these women were and their places in the world of detection. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Jack for bringing them back again.” From Foreword by Barbara J. Watkins
