In "The Star Gazer," the Saint investigates a mysterious disappearance at the Mayhew Mansion, where a soldier has vanished and whispers of ghosts linger. With the help of the soldier’s wife and a growing sense of unease, the Saint uncovers a truth far more grounded—and far more dangerous—than the supernatural. Allen Ulmer’s expressive artwork brings the eerie mansion and its secrets to life, with both interior and cover drawn entirely by him.

At the Empire State Building's observation deck, Simon Templar—the Saint—interrupts a young woman's desperate attempt to end her life, only to discover she's been driven to despair by a fraudulent fortune teller named Mysta who's exploited her belief in the stars. When Helen Corning's brother Dexter arrives furious and determined to confront Mysta, the Saint finds himself drawn into a web of manipulation, hired thugs, and a sinister scheme that goes far deeper than simple exploitation. As the pieces come together, the Saint must untangle who's really pulling the strings before Helen becomes the ultimate casualty of greed.

When a soldier vanishes from the Mayhew Mansion during a severe housing shortage, the Saint is drawn into a mystery that’s less about ghosts and more about desperate people in desperate times. With help from Pat Holm and a wary caretaker named Caleb, the Saint uncovers secrets hidden behind the mansion’s grand facade—where a soldier’s wife, Mrs. Williams, holds a quiet truth, and even the mansion’s agent, George Q. Peabody, may not be telling the whole story.
