Secret in the Snow
6 pp · Crime

A wealthy man arrives at a snowy ski resort with his beautiful wife, only to have her die in what initially appears to be a tragic accident on the slopes. When the sheriff investigates, he uncovers a web of jealousy, infidelity, and hidden motives—and a single piece of evidence in the snow that exposes the truth.

Northland Hide-Out

Canadian Mountie William Glenway tracks a fugitive mail robber to a remote northern shack during a blizzard, armed with nothing but a name and a location—and no description of his quarry.

Picking the Pickpocket

At the circus, trouble-shooter Bob Wayne must catch a light-fingered pickpocket who's been cleaning out the crowds during performances.

A small-time crook with dreams of the big score meets a beautiful redhead with a dangerous proposition: crack the safe of millionaire Bernard Merden and split the take—a plan that promises Johnny Marsh his ticket out of the petty leagues.
