☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free# Authentic Police Cases #9 This anthology issue contains at least two stories. The lead story, "U.S. Agent Traps International Jewel Thieves," follows a U.S. agent who infiltrates a criminal operation, posing as a stalled operative to gain the confidence of a gang of jewel thieves and international smugglers. A second story involves Inspector Donovan investigating the case of Bill Curtin, a man supposedly dead, who may be alive and involved in smuggling operations in the Caribbean, prompting Donovan to travel to Miami and consult with local authorities to verify Curtin's status and prevent further criminal activity.
When a mysterious radio signal originates from the Arctic—supposedly from a gang of international jewel thieves who vanished five years ago during wartime—FBI agent Mr. Corey is sent undercover to a remote Greenland settlement to investigate. Posing as a fur and ivory trader, Corey uncovers suspicious activity at the harbor and becomes the target of an assassin, forcing him to rely on his wits and caution as he closes in on a dangerous and desperate crew. The case that the FBI never closed may finally have its answers—if Corey survives long enough to get them.
When a ruthless trapper named Johnson begins robbing Eskimo traplines across the Arctic, Inspector Eames of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police launches a determined pursuit through the frozen wilderness near Rat River Junction. Johnson proves a cunning and desperate quarry, fortifying his cabin against siege and matching the Mounties' skill with brutal ingenuity at every turn. As the hunt intensifies across the snow and ice, both sides must draw on every ounce of courage and strategy to see which will emerge victorious.
In "Corpses in the Caribbean," Marian Curtin insists the corpse at the mortuary isn’t her husband Bill, despite official claims. When Inspector Donovan investigates, he uncovers a web of smuggling beneath the Caribbean surface—and a very much alive Bill Curtin, caught in a deadly deception.
