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 un-related, and an invisible mastermind who choreographed killings for the highest stakes in town. THE SHADOW was on trial leading straght to a brilliant trap -- and a face to face encounter with a criminal genius determined to beat him at his own game!
