Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: The Four Sleuths in The Trap Closes
Sarah Rockford returned to consciousness by slow degrees, resisting the process at every step, for the more aware she became, the more her head pounded and her muscles ached.

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: The Four Sleuths in The Mastermind
Sitting on the edge of the table, kicking her feet and looking more like a schoolgirl on recess than she would have cared to know, Sarah Rockford looked around with interest in the strange group she had found herself in. There was Andre Fireson, whose mansion she had woken up in that morning (was … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: The Four Sleuths in The Mastermind
Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Andre Fireson and Nick Windworth in Friends in Need
They sat across from each other, as they had done once before, just prior to a hail of gunshots that had killed Gallano’s bodyguard and ended up setting his restaurant on fire. Andre thought the mobster had grown even more vulture-like in the intervening week or so. “You place me in a most … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Andre Fireson and Nick Windworth in Friends in Need

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Andre Fireson and Sarah Rockford in ‘A Snare of Attraction’
Sarah Rockford returned to consciousness with a throbbing headache and a very dim recollection of what had happened the night before.

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Andre Fireson in Necessary Evils
Andre Fireson was no stranger to elegant afternoon affairs like this one. Being the President of a major arms manufacturer, he’d often had to wine and dine his way to a lucrative business deal.

Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Sarah Rockford in Crime Uninvited
Sarah Rockford reflected that it was a very strange thing to be sitting across the table from a man who had come very close to murdering her only a few days before. “Thank you for consenting to see me, Mr. Lepton,” she said. “This won’t take long.” Lepton said nothing. He was looking at her … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Sarah Rockford in Crime Uninvited
Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Nick Windworth and Karen Stillwater in The Crush of Evidence
Karen Stillwater eyed the man before her with distaste. Though a few inches taller than she was, something about his sloping shoulders and somewhat drooping face made her think of him as a little man. He wore a dirty jacket, shirt, and unkempt tie and hung a battered felt hat on the peg by … Continue reading Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Nick Windworth and Karen Stillwater in The Crush of Evidence
Thrilling Adventure Stories Presents: Nick Windworth in The Man in Grey
The shop bell chimed and a young woman entered. Nick guessed she was in her mid twenties; pretty, though less than she might be. Her fair young face was worn with anxiety and her light brown hair was tangled, probably from the number of times she’d run her fingers through it.
