Commissioner Dolan picks up what he thinks is a bargain at an auction—a cheap pen and mystery package for just two dollars—but his prize draws unexpected and dangerous attention when a stranger offers increasingly large sums to buy it back. When the package is finally opened, it contains a scarab holding U174, a radioactive element stolen from a scientist's laboratory, and the Spirit must track down a murder and stop criminals from delivering the dangerous material to enemy agents.
