Max Hale
Created by George Harmon Coxe

Well-dressed, well-off and pretty well-reluctant MAX CHAUNCEY HALE is only a private eye as a sort of hobby. Seems he's only taken three or four jobs in the two years his long-suffering, sardonic secretary Sue Marshall has been with him. He certainley doesn't seem to need the money, coming from a "good" family. He's been to the State Police Academy, and his newspaper friends say he's a detective. It usually takes a bit of nagging from a very bored Sue before he'll take a case.

The prolific writer Coxe has several other PI series characters: SAM CROMBIE, LEON MORLEY, and JACK FENNER, as well as his best known creations, crime photographers, FLASHGUN CASEY and KENT MURDOCK who are basically private eyes with cameras.
