# Out of the Night #2 This anthology issue contains the story "The Terrific Trio," in which a dying man named Audrey consults with mystic Roger Markson, who uses supernatural means to manipulate events. Roger coerces Audrey into helping him win the affections of a woman named June Hopewell by threatening to reveal that June's brother Frank and Roger's brother are identical twins born minutes apart, allowing Roger to claim June will only find happiness if she marries him.
