☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis is an anthology issue featuring four crime and adventure stories. "The Finger of Doom" depicts Inspector Kirk of Scotland Yard hunting a night-prowling monster in London. "Undercover Girl" follows an undercover female agent operating within an international crime carnival. "The Red Fox of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police" shows the Red Fox battling a she-wolf. "Fallon of the F.B.I. Encounters the Woman Who Came from the Grave" features F.B.I. agent Fallon confronting a supernatural threat, with the story involving mysterious deaths and investigation into a woman's origins.
When G-man Jim Fallon reconnects with an old friend, he finds the socialite mysteriously ill and his new bride, Lorna Crown Morrison, deeply anxious about strange blue lights flickering over the nearby woods and marshes. Suspecting something far darker than gossip, Fallon begins investigating—only to uncover a sinister operation tied to counterfeiting, poisoning, and a conspiracy that reaches far beyond what anyone expected. "Terror From the Tomb!" delivers all the Gothic atmosphere and noir intrigue you'd want from a 1948 thriller, complete with a hero who has to think fast to survive a fiery trap.
Inspector Ronald Kirk of Scotland Yard investigates a gruesome murder that seems to defy explanation—the victim's throat torn apart, yet with no dog tracks and mysterious hand marks left behind. His investigation leads him to Martin Klegg, a man hiding a terrible secret: when the full moon rises, he transforms into something neither fully man nor beast. Kirk must confront the monstrous truth behind the killing before Klegg strikes again.
While patrolling the Canadian wilderness, the Red Fox stumbles upon a wounded stranger, Jim Traner, trapped by a mysterious gang led by the ruthless woman called Le Fleur Noir. Caught between Traner's pleas for help and Le Fleur Noir's deadly traps, the Mountie must uncover the truth behind the gang's isolation of the valley—and fight his way out of an increasingly deadly confrontation.
When Space Ace Jet Black and his partner investigate a string of impossible murders on Mars, they discover deadly flowers from Saturn—and a mysterious harper whose otherworldly music seems tied to the crimes. As they close in on a garden filled with these killer blooms, they uncover a sinister plot by the Bird-Men of Jupiter to conquer the civilization and seize power. With Yanal the Harper's help, Space Ace and his crew must stop the alien invaders before their lethal flowers claim more lives.
In "The Riddle of the Radio Death," Jo investigates the mysterious death of famed newscaster Floyd Armitage, who was killed mid-broadcast just seconds after hinting at a world-shattering revelation: the impending invasion of an oil-rich nation. With the truth buried in a final, cryptic transmission, Jo must unravel the clues hidden in the static and silence that followed.
