Number 681 in the popular “Secret Service” series featuring “Old and Young King Brady, Detectives” which started January 27, 1899, and came out like clockwork every Friday for more than two decades—by which time well more than a thousand issues had been published—The Bradys in Death Swamp; or, Downing a Desperate Band sends the Bradys into a giant, Georgia coastal swamp after a band of vicious counterfeiters who have kidnapped a lumber baron’s son and daughter; a swamp which also happens to be the home of a Voodoo practitioner who calls himself King Death.
At more than 26,000 words, plus more than 2,000 words in two bonus stories—“Chateaubriand’s Escape” and “A Famous Goose”—this novella-sized work of pulp fiction, besides being an interesting and fun read, gives the reader a taste of what the masses were reading in the late 19th and early 20th century time period.
