WHO KNOWS WHAT EVIL LURKS IN THE HEARTS OF MEN?
It was a message from a dead man. A small piece of paper worth a fortune in blood. Eight mysterious symbols that marked the beginning of a chain of violence executed by gangsters willing to kill for a code they did not understand. Only one man called the shots for this riddle: The Chief, whose reputation made any further identification unnecessary — and lethal.
Obviously a case for THE SHADOW — a cryptic message, a series of baffling murders, seemingly unrelated, and an invisible mastermind who choreographed killings for the highest stakes in town. THE SHADOW was on a trail leading straight to a brilliant trap — and a face-to-face encounter with a criminal genius determined to beat him at his own game!
