Authentic Police Cases #12
This anthology issue features "The Still Murder," based on Case No. 235 from the Authentic Police Crime File, written by Ralph Lane. Private detective Vic Flint is called by a woman named Bibby Lang to prevent a murder, and Inspector Growl of the city police joins the investigation. The story involves a complex case where police set up surveillance across the city, checking all rail terminals and bus stations, with a dragnet thrown out to catch suspects like Logan, Mitchell, Kane, and Mulligan. The narrative culminates in a stakeout operation where officers attempt to identify and apprehend the criminal responsible for the murder plot.
