Synopsis

THE LIVING ENDEddie Marlon is just a kid with a song he wants published, another city kid with dreams of being in the music business. His song is nothing special, but Eddie gets a tip that a local radio station needs help on the early morning shift. Marty Allen hires him to line up the records for his show. But the way Eddie sees it, Marty is a square—he doesn’t go for the bucks that are to be had charging A&R guys to get their tunes on the air. Eddie must have been born lucky because one night Marty needs Eddie to help him get the station boss out of a jam. Then they owe him. And when it’s time to collect, Eddie is right there with a plan. He wants his own time slot and he wants to put on free shows with all the big talent, who will naturally play for free to get the air time. Eddie’s got big plans alright. Because now it’s his shot at the top—and if you want to be on Eddie’s show, you’re going to pay for it!

About the Author

Frank Kane was born in Brooklyn on July 19, 1912. Graduating from New York City College at 19, he began to attend law school when the first of three daughters were born to him and his wife, Ann. Needing the extra income, he began to work as a newspaper columnist, working his way up to editor before becoming a public relations director for the liquor industry. After WWII, Kane left public relations to become a freelance writer and a radio and TV producer. He wrote for The Shadow for six years, but it was the creation of detective Johnny Liddell in About Face which made his fortune. Selling millions of copies throughout the world, Kane eventually wrote nearly 40 novels, most of them Liddell mysteries, and ended up working in Hollywood where he created his own production company. He passed away unexpectedly at his home in Manhasset, New York, on November 29, 1968.
