Pho :e 103 Nights 133 by Mary Imlay Taylor Sergeant Michael O'Hara of the Northwest Mounted Police, one of the keenest man -hunters who ever took the trail, is, struck with the beauty of a young woman at a dance hall. Her expres- sion betrays grave trouble. While studying her features, O'Hara receives a summons to appear before his chief, Inspector Mao- donald, "Got a case for you, O'Hara," says the chief. "Looks like double murder, but unfortunately the trail is already five days old. Macdonald outlined to O'Hara the known details of the crime and gives 'him two mink tails which one of the victims pulled from the slayer's coat. O'Hara calls on Johnson, who had been assigned to the case at first, but who had quit because of an accident. O'Hara hoped to get more information from John- son, but Johnson seemed to be holding something back. O'Hara sets out on the trail and comes upon the supposedly deserted cabin of the murdered' Jean Gharian. There isa faint light show- ing within the cabin, so O'Hara breaks in andcomes face to face with the young woman he had seen at the dance hall, Laure Gharian, widow of the slain man. She has been burning some papers. He finds Nicky Creuse locked in another room and lib- erates him. Nicky accuses Laure of the murder of his sister and Jean Gharian. O'Hara finds two guns on Nieky and places him under arrest. Creuse and O'Hara spend the night at the cabin. "BEYOND THE LAW" is a THRILLING story. It's EXCITING beyond words!
