These two short stories by Bobby Underwood harken back to the days of pulp magazines and old-time radio shows such as “Suspense”. I love mystery stories, especially ones that remind me of the classics of yesteryear in the tradition of Cornell Woolrich. While reading these wonderful tales, I had the irresistible urge for a cup of hot cocoa and a bowl of popcorn. It really WAS like experiencing those great old radio programs from the 1940s or reading stories straight out of Argosy Magazine. Underwood writes with such flair with the enjoyment of the reader in mind, reading becomes a great pleasure, and the days of wonder live again. I read these in his collection of short stories, “The Unlocked Window: Tales of Suspense.” It’s a fantastic collection of nine stories of mystery and suspense by a master wordsmith that will keep you up past your bedtime.
