Contains 5 stories
The Missing Money Racket
6 pp · crime

When a thousand dollars vanishes from the Second National Bank, Sgt. Joe Pride and his partner Hank launch a methodical investigation that starts with the bank employees and takes an unexpected turn when they discover a suspicious connection between the bank manager and a mysterious rooming house resident. As the leads multiply and the stakes climb, the detectives race to piece together the scheme before the thief strikes again.

Heirlooms Inc.
5 pp · crime

When a smooth-talking stranger plants the idea that an old farm couple's furniture might be valuable antiques, Abe and his wife fall victim to an elaborate con orchestrated by Lewis Paley, Arthur Day, and Don Weyeth—men who work together to bilk unsuspecting victims out of their life savings through fake restoration work and inflated bills. Sergeant Joe Pride of the Racket Squad steps in to expose the scheme, using a fortuitous tape recording to catch the swindlers in their own lies and dismantle their operation.

Detonation Squad
6 pp · crime

Police Lieutenant Dan Croft races against time when a madman plants a ticking bomb in a subway station and threatens to detonate it at six o'clock—forcing Croft to hunt down the bomber while keeping the city from panic. With only hours to search miles of track and stations, Croft finally spots his target perched dangerously over the rails, but when the madman triggers the device, Croft must work frantically to disarm it even as a subway express bears down on him. It's a tense game of nerves and expertise where one wrong move means disaster for the entire city.

The Car Racket
7 pp · crime

Sergeant Joe Pride zeros in on Tommy Leggett, a cunning criminal who's running a car theft racket—stealing vehicles two a week to provide getaway cars for armed robberies, pocketing a clean percentage while keeping his hands clean. When a young thief dies in a high-speed chase and a bank heist goes down with another stolen car, Pride knows he's finally got the opening he needs to bring Leggett down. "The Car Racket" is a taut 1958 crime story where patience and persistence become a cop's sharpest weapons.

The Great Electric Trap
1 pp · crime

When a clever thief known as "Raffles" preys on wealthy Long Island homes with seeming impunity, the police devise an ingenious trap: a giant switchboard wired to detect the one thing that always marks his crimes—a cut telephone line. As weeks of surveillance finally pay off and an alarm sounds, officers rush to intercept a master criminal they've been chasing for years. It's a smart game of wits between law and lawlessness, with the odds suddenly tilted in the RACKET SQUAD's favor.
