The Boomerang Kid!
6 pp · detective-mystery

Dr. Tom Rogers, a prison psychiatrist, faces a bewildering case when ex-convict Whitey Snarker deliberately breaks back into Blakely State Prison just a week after his release—but his refusal to explain why sets off a chain of investigations that uncovers a secret far more complex than anyone anticipated. As Rogers digs deeper into Snarker's cryptic behavior and violent encounters with other inmates, the true reason behind this strange "boomerang" becomes clear, revealing a man at odds with his own past and struggling to do what he believes is right.

Clues in Breaking Glass
1 pp · non-fiction

When a store window shatters during a crime, the broken glass itself becomes evidence—and crime laboratory experts know how to read it. By examining bullet holes, fracture patterns, and glass fragments, investigators can determine the caliber of the weapon, how far away it was fired, and crucially, which direction the force came from. This 1955 entry in Crime Tracks reveals how the smallest shards can answer the biggest questions: was the window broken from outside or in?

Fateful Decision
10 pp · detective-mystery

Young Eddie Boyle is a promising heavyweight contender with dreams of championship glory—but his trainer Pete, his girlfriend Judy, and her father are all pushing him toward different futures. When a catastrophic accident in the ring forces Eddie to reckon with the brutal cost of his ambition, he must finally confront what truly matters and what kind of man he wants to become.

Counterfeiting
0.67 pp · non-fiction

This educational crime feature examines the history and mechanics of counterfeiting, from its brutal punishments in old London to the modern techniques criminals use to forge U.S. currency—particularly the nearly impossible task of replicating the distinctive reeded edges on legitimate coins. Learn how counterfeiters operate and how the law pursues them, presented as straightforward crime facts in this 1955 installment.

The Last Request
7 pp · superhero

When a convicted murderer awaits execution at state prison, he makes one last request—to see Crime Smasher—and reveals a shocking truth: gangster Greg Ransel framed him to stop an anti-slot-machine bill. Crime Smasher must race against the clock to expose Ransel's frame-up and prove the real killer before justice executes the wrong man. With Eve's help and a clever trap set in Ransel's hotel room, the hero hunts for evidence that could save an innocent life in the final hour.
