Partners of Peril

Shadow novel #113.

The mystery begins with certain men being marked for murder at midnight and, one by one, they are killed despite all efforts to protect them. There's no shortage of suspects and some of them are really nasty people. Harry Vincent is captured by a couple of them. They even have a truth machine they use on him.

A form of poison gas that has military uses seems to be at the base of what is going on. There's also a really neat train escape and massive explosion that takes place, something you don't see that often in Shadow novels. The guy named Merriweather is a really nasty piece of work, by the way.
