The Spider #51 Audiobook
Satan's Switchboard
by Wayne Rogers writing as Grant Stockbridge
Read by Nick Santa Maria
 
 
Stillness like that of the cold tombs had descended upon America’s greatest city, and in that cheerless, ringing void, no man dared raise his voice above a whisper. For the Silencer was at work, his giant ear strained to catch the innermost secrets of every citizen, turning upon them a blackmail scourge such as the world had never seen, as he drove those helpless multitudes to wholesale suicide! Never before had Richard Wentworth been called upon to battle a crime-emperor so powerful. As he donned the Spider’s eerie armor, to take up the Silencer’s trail of faceless corpses — it meant war to the death with a monster whose reign extended clear into the sky, itself, and whose victims died whispering, in hell!
 
The Spider was the only pulp hero to suffer under a messiah complex of immense proportions. As Norvell W. Page—the Quentin Tarantino of pulp fiction as well as a former crime reporter and the primary creator behind the Spider—related his complicated backstory: “Wentworth had sworn his crusades of justice long ago solely because of his hatred of injustice, his great altruistic love for mankind.
 
“Oh, there had been personal reasons behind his initial foray beyond the law—a dear friend was being framed out of life and honor and home. And there had been the example of his father, who had died when Wentworth was scarcely in his teens, a great lawyer murdered by criminals because he had dared defy them to save an innocent man they had made their scapegoat.”
 
Nick Santa Maria once again brings the Spider to life in Satan's Switchboard. Originally published in The Spider magazine, December, 1937.
