Correct Answer!

The Missing Key

A locksmith's murder sets Hopalong Cassidy on the trail of a blackmail scheme targeting Judge Peters just weeks before the mayoral election—and a mysterious key becomes the linchpin to unraveling the whole crooked plan. When Morey Frost's nightly visits to the judge's home threaten to derail an honest man's campaign, Hopalong must piece together the connection between an old crime and present-day extortion. It's a case where one small piece of evidence could expose a killer and save a town's future.

The Dummy Dilemma

When ventriloquist the Great Gabbo and his dummy Ferdinand come to town, Hopalong and Mesquite invite them to a celebration dinner at the widow Jones' house—but a theft at the opera house and a mysterious disappearance of the widow's inheritance set Hopalong on the trail of a cunning thief. As suspicion falls on everyone from the performer himself to Mesquite, Hopalong must uncover who's really behind the scheme before another crime strikes.

The Empty Six-Shooter
8 pp · western-frontier

When gold shipment bandits sabotage Hopalong Cassidy's guns by emptying the chambers, the clever sheriff finds himself outgunned and cornered—but a man with a reputation like Hopalong's doesn't stay down for long.

This 1950 frontier tale proves that in a showdown, brains can outmatch bullets.
