Big Bad Beat Detective Magazine is dedicated to the mystery/detective
short story. We're here as an online magazine that carries on the tradition of the great pulp fiction magazines of the 1920s-1950s,
magazines such as: Black Mask, Dime Detective, Thrilling Detective, and latter-day digest-size
mystery mags like Mike Shayne's Mystery Magazine, Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, and Alfred Hitchcock's
Mystery Magazine.
We're here to present today's Raymond Chandlers, Dashiell Hammetts,
Erle Stanley Gardners, and Leigh Bracketts.
So, roll your chair closer to your rickety computer and listen...
To the Big Bad Beat.
