4th with private eye Timothy Dane
“When Timothy Dane is hired by a ruthless gang of hoodlums to find the killer of their chief, the tough private eye finds himself caught in a crossfire between vicious mobsters, gun-happy cops, and men living by the jungle law of the waterfront – plus a luscious show-girl whose specialty is a certain kind of ‘private party’”

cover art by George Gross
though no story refers to it, the figure at the left looks like Boris Karloff as Fu Manchu
