Death Jewels

It's obvious from the title that this is another story involving the theft of valuable jewels. It involves a woman named Valencia, who seems to be a very nice person, and Reggie, a thorough cad. She doesn't trust him.

Later Reggie finds a way to get into the house but is helped by the Shadow. Reggie is very determined, though, and manages to find a way to kidnap Valencia. One of the Shadow's agents is captured. There also seems to be a man who is head of everything that is going on involving the jewels.

The Shadow uses two disguises in this story, leaving the Lamont Cranston disguise out. The story is good, although it doesn't involve someone like a crime master with loads of minions. There is violence, of course, but not as much as many other Shadow stories contain.
