NARCOTICS

IT'S SEEMS THERE'S NO HONOUR among thieves when dope is at stake, and even the supposedly all-powerful "Organization" is willing to risk trying on a double-deal with Hank Janson when they find their supplies of the stuff are in peril. Never the man to miss a chance of an inside story, Hank goes in with his head down and his eyes wide open, only to find that the intrigue is a three-sided one. In mortal danger from two sets of gangsters and the subversive agents of an Eastern power, he contrives at last to break up the three interlocking rings. But it sure is a very, very near thing.

SUBVERSION ON THE RANGE

THE TRAGIC EVENT which blackened the name of Dallas, Texas not long ago has left in its wake a trail of speculation and unanswered questions about possible motives.

Pressed, none too willingly, to follow through a lead which seemed to associate the unexplained abduction of sundry layabouts with one of the big names of Texas millionaire society, Hank Janson discovers there is much more at stake than anyone had imagined.

Trouble awaits him at Broken D range, where his assumed identity is quickly discovered and his attraction to rival women-folk proves a deadly embarrassment. The sinister purpose of the mystery range becomes apparent, but a pitched gun-battle has to be fought before the power behind it all can be revealed. Then the full horror and significance of what had gone before - and what might have happened but for Hank's intervention - is dramatically exposed.
