Illustrated edition. New OCR. Take a tough mining town and two copper magnates who are mixing murder with mining. Add an odd assortment of grafters, shady police, oily politicos, patriotic Poles, and slick stock market riggers. Sprinkle with a few bullets and a handful of dynamite. Spice with Mexican nightclub entertainers and smart dames who know, even as the original Eve, the purpose for which an apple was designed. Stir vigorously. Serve up to John J. Shannon, detective extraordinary for those who need the services of a private eye sharp enough to penetrate a tank. The result? As the glamorous Miss Frances McGowan expresses it in the last paragraph of this book: “It’s all a part of the great Shannon tradition. Never a dull moment.” Copyrighted, 1942, by Cleve F. Adams, Regular edition, $2.00.
