☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis issue contains two stories. "Rusty and Dusty in Young Folks at Home" follows two boys whose parents, Judge Richard Ames and his wife, are opera-bound for the evening, leaving the boys to their own devices; when the boys discover a newspaper headline about loan sharks robbing the police commissioner, they pursue the case themselves. "The Saint" features the vigilante hero investigating a case involving his stepfather Jack Gibney and a woman named Minnie, uncovering a complex scheme involving a fraudulent marriage license and blackmail that threatens to expose dark secrets from his past, leading him to pursue the culprits across the city at night.
When a reform candidate named Homer Bright finds himself framed by a crooked political operation using doctored photographs, he turns to the Saint for help—but Simon Templar has his own way of fighting dirty elections. As the Saint sets a trap to catch the frame-up artists red-handed, he'll need more than quick thinking to expose the real culprits and protect the ballot box in "The Saint Swings an Election."
When their parents head out for the evening, brothers Rusty and Dusty hear suspicious sounds downstairs—only to discover a young burglar named Joe who's been pressured into crime by a manipulative criminal named Mike. The twins see potential in the boy and make him an offer that sets off a chain of events neither they nor their judge father could have predicted.
Hoppy Uniatz signs up for dancing lessons at a fancy dance school, hoping to impress a woman named Minoiva—but his clumsy footwork quickly catches the attention of something far more sinister lurking behind the studio's respectable facade. When Hoppy stumbles onto evidence of loan sharks operating out of the school, he must rely on his street smarts to expose the operation and bring the crooks to justice. It's all in a day's work for The Saint's unlikely associate, even if he never does master that box step.
When a wealthy dowager dies unexpectedly during a society engagement announcement, the Saint suspects foul play and teams up with her son Rodney to expose a sinister scheme. Posing as a lonely fortune-hunter at a matrimonial agency, Simon infiltrates a deadly operation targeting vulnerable women—one that led directly to his friend's mother. It's a clever undercover gambit to dismantle a criminal enterprise preying on romance and inheritance.
