☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe Saint investigates "The Blackmail Beauty," a case involving murder in London connected to a suspicious doll business. A woman is mysteriously killed, with a pin through her heart discovered in a doll, leading the Saint to investigate a house where criminals are operating. The investigation intensifies when accidents plague the opening of a theatrical production called "Springtime," forcing the Saint to confront the culprits and thwart their deadly schemes using a revolving turntable device.
When the Saint refuses to surrender his hotel suite on the French Riviera, he finds himself caught in a web of deception—first challenged to a duel by a vengeful count, then framed for murder when the count turns up dead. With Pat Holm and Hoppy Uniatz at his side, the Saint must uncover who's really behind the killing and why everyone is so desperate to claim Suite Number 13.
When a mysterious woman with a velvet voice lures the Saint away from his dinner plans, a frantic phone call from an old contact ends in electrocution—and a cache of blackmail papers worth a fortune. The Saint and Pat Holm must uncover who's behind this deadly scheme before the beautiful Lady Gregory slips through their fingers with evidence that could shake London's high society.
Flash Harper, crack news photographer for the Daily Slant, and his colleague Amy Bell are sent to Slavonia to investigate the mysterious death of their foreign correspondent—a case that leads them straight into the shadowy world of a fanatical underground society called the Bloody Doll Society, who use replica dolls marked with pins to condemn their enemies to death. As Flash and Amy work to uncover the truth behind the dolls and rescue the inventor Dr. Valdez from the organization's grip, Flash finds himself marked as their next target. With the society's final meeting set for that very night, Flash must use his wits and ingenuity to stop them before they extract Valdez's dangerous secrets.
When theater producer Roger Darnell consults a supernatural medium about his new show's prospects, Pat Holm tags along to debunk the supposed spiritualist hokum—but the eerie seance leaves even her skeptical. The Saint smells a con beneath the crystal ball and ghostly apparitions, and sets out to expose the fraud before superstition and sabotage destroy Darnell's production entirely.
