Description: "The year is 1935. The world is trapped between economic strife and the foreboding storm clouds of war. Things are pretty bad, right? Ah, yes, but they can always get worse. Enter Monsieur Black Fang Delacroix and his Legion of Madmen, Captain Heinrich Von Faust and the might of the German army, and a nefarious secret society known only as The Cabal. Together they carry all the makings for armageddon. Unfortunately, "armageddon" in this case is literal. These dastardly villains have united with the sole purpose of destroying the world! But not if Brick Brannigan has anything to say about it! Working together with the lovely and brilliant scholar Dr. Liliana Halifax, the dapper pilot Archibald Nero, and a brave and loyal graduate assistant named Andrew, Brick Brannigan is all that stands between us and the end of existence as we know it. Can he, in fact, save the world? Written in the thrilling style of 1930s pulp icons Lester Dent and Norvell Page, Brick Brannigan is Knee-Deep in Peril! is filled with mad adventures, perilous desert crossings, exotic foreign cuisine, rare and lethal poisons, swing music, and evil subterfuge at every turn. Join our adventurers and return to a simpler yet infinitely stranger (and more unsettling!) time in our history. What are you waiting for?"--Publisher's description.
