Ham Brooks is rendered helpless by a strange sound that can destroy planes in midair and even disintegrates entire populations through The Rustling Death. After his cover is blown during an undercover mission, the Man of Bronze heads to the South Seas to avert an atomic age threat in one of his most gripping postwar adventures! Terror and the Lonely Widow may have even been a partial inspiration for Ian Fleming's original screen treatment Warhead which was then rewritten into novel form as Thunderball and was then reworked yet again into the script for Never Say Never Again. Plus essays by Will Murray and Robert Greenberger

Lester Dent
Author · 55 books
Lester Dent (1904–1959) was born in La Plata, Missouri. In his mid-twenties, he began publishing pulp fiction stories, and moved to New York City, where he developed the successful Doc Savage Magazine with Henry Ralston, head of Street and Smith, a leading pulp publisher. The magazine ran from 1933 until 1949 and included 181 novel-length stories, of which Dent wrote the vast majority under the house name Kenneth Robeson. He also published mystery novels in a variety of genres, including the Chance Molloy series about a self-made airline owner. Dent’s own life was quite adventurous; he prospected for gold in the Southwest, lived aboard a schooner for a few years, hunted treasure in the Caribbean, launched an aerial photography company, and was a member of the Explorer’s Club.
