A creation of Robert Leslie Bellem, Dan Turner, Hollywood Detective appeared in hundreds of stories from 1934 to 1950 in the pulp magazines of the Culture and Trojan lines. Spicy Detective was his birthplace, but he appeared in Speed Detective, Private Detective Stories, Hollywood Detective, and his own magazine, Dan Turner, Hollywood Detective. The Dan Turner stories ran through three distinct phases: the spicy phase, the middle, less spicy phase, and the tamer phase. The breadth of these story types has not been explored fully before until the publication of this three volume series. Volume 2 deals with the middle period, a slightly less spicy period, when Dan Turner appeared in his own magazine, filled with his own stories. The stories in this volume are from 1943. Each story also features the original artwork which graced the pages of the pulp magazines upon their first appearance.
