The Strange Disappearance of Joe Cardona

By Grant, Maxwell

Excerpt
CHAPTER I. THE PURPLE DEATH: LOOK at this, Cardona. Fiercely, Police Commissioner Ralph Weston brandished a newspaper before the eyes of his ace inspector, Joe Cardona. The headline, in a big-typed streamer, read: PURPLE DEATH STRIKES AGAIN His swarthy face grim, Cardona received the newspaper with tight-fisted hands. He grimaced when he noted that the newspaper had foregone the usual red ink that it used for sensational headlines. The big letters were printed in purple; the very hue that represented death itself.
