☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeJungle Thrills #16 is an anthology featuring "Screams of the Jungle Terror," in which natives disappear from the Congo depths to meet an unknown fate beneath an ancient forest carpet, and explorers must defeat demons inhabiting the underground kingdom; "Jo-Jo Gorkin" by Stan Ford, where Jo-Jo and Tanee encounter an unknown terror while exploring a new troll-infested cave; and a crime story involving a series of burglaries connected to a stolen encyclopedia, with police headquarters investigating a master locksmith criminal and pursuing suspects in a suspicious sport car headed to Florida.
When ace reporter Dan Knight arrives in the jungle after receiving a mysterious letter, he encounters Rulah, the formidable woman the natives call the Jungle Goddess—who claims she never sent it. As Dan settles into village life, two young women vanish, leading Rulah on a dangerous hunt through a brutal slave-trafficking operation and into a carefully laid trap. With enemies closing in and secrets about to unravel, Dan finds himself caught between survival and exposing the mastermind pulling the strings.
When an underground tremor traps Jo-Jo and Tanee beneath the Congo forest, they discover a secret kingdom lurking in the caverns below—complete with prehistoric creatures and a sinister mystery surrounding the tribe's missing tribesmen. The answer lies with Gabu, a vengeful elder who has transformed the underground caves into his own dark domain, and it will take all of Jo-Jo's jungle skill and courage to free the captives and escape the Kingdom of Unseen Terror.
Jack Kent has mastered the art of lock-picking and plans to use his expertise for a life of crime, but Detective Howard Ross is determined to stop him and his accomplice Mae before their string of burglaries turns deadly. As the noose tightens around them, Jack and Mae find themselves cornered by a police net closing in on their final score. This sharp crime tale shows how even the cleverest scheme falls apart when greed and desperation take over.
When a mysterious girl bandit who bears an uncanny resemblance to socialite Chloe Tristram terrorizes the city, Phantom Lady enters the case to clear an innocent woman's name—only to uncover a far more twisted scheme lurking beneath the surface. As the masked crimefighter races to separate fact from dangerous coincidence, Chloe reveals a secret that changes everything, setting the stage for a confrontation that will test Phantom Lady's detective skills to their limits.
