Publisher's summary

Traversing a vivid landscape, from sunblasted hills and canyons to the nighttime streets of America's greatest cities, some of Louis L'Amour's most compelling fiction was set in his own time. Here are tales of innocents caught in the schemes of criminals, detectives hunting down truths that hide more lies, gangsters and beauties, private investigators and cops. Here is a world populated by the kinds of people who risk their lives to right a wrong, make a buck, or save a friend. Included here is this collection are "Police Band", "Dead Man's Trail", "The Hills of Homicide", and "The Sucker Switch".

Written and performed in the crackling pulp fiction style of the 1940's and 50's, these thrilling, atmospheric stories course with authenticity and bear the mark of a timeless master.

Good writing

They are all good stories and contain that Lemur wit and style we have all come to love. Personally I enjoy the historically correct writings about the young Western frontier and the Swashbuckling adventures of the Sacketts.

Only 4 of 33 Stories

Louis L'Amour's collection volume 6 (the crime stores) book contains 33 stories. This audio book contains only 4 of them.

I love the crime stories, so I was hoping for several more (like all of them), and was extremely disappointed to find only four.

These four are great stories and Stephen Mendel's reading is excellent. What is here is well done.

Just wish there were 29 more of them from the original book.
