Only The Black Spectre has the power to save a woman from the electric chair. But should he?
As a wealthy, high-ranking member of Terminal City society, Brent Gregor has been invited to witness many executions. But this is the only one that he’s actually considered. First, because it’s someone that he apprehended as The Black Spectre. But mostly it’s because beautiful, auburn-haired reporter Vicky Rose also wants to attend. And she can only do it with his help.
Invitation to Death is the first collection of Black Spectre short stories that originally appeared in ASTONISHING ADVENTURES magazine. If you like Agent Carter, the Rocketeer, and The Dark Knight, then you’ll love Roger Alford’s gritty noir mysteries that effortlessly combine new pulp with a classic 1930s style.
