# Museum Catalog Note
"La emisora clandestina" by Lou Carrigan is a spy-thriller serialized in this 1968 Spanish-language pulp magazine. The story follows Marguerite, a covert operative searching the Mississippi River docks at Baton Rouge for a clandestine radio transmitter hidden aboard the cargo vessel Little Boat. Equipped with sophisticated detection apparatus and night-vision binoculars, Marguerite maintains radio contact with her handler as she conducts surveillance. When confronted by a dock worker, she dispatches him fatally with martial prowess and a knife before disposing of the body. She then pursues Captain Stephen McCawly, the ship's commander, into the waterfront bars, disguised as a prostitute. The narrative combines espionage tradecraft with action sequences and period detail of river commerce and dockside life.
