Speakeasy Murder *Also available as part of a box set* When Patrolman James H. Masterson was murdered in January, 1927, in a New York City speakeasy, while observing the place on an undercover investigation, the most capable men in the Police Department were assigned the job of running down the gunmen. Detectives Thomas Martin and Steven G. Donahue, two of the best sleuths of the Homicide Squad, were picked for the task and were soon on the trail of the four ruthless murderers, eventually tracking them down to their mountain hideout where a deadly shootout ensued.
