"This is a fun story, and probably the best of the five "Hand" novels. The previous three were: "The Hand" from May 15, 1938, "Murder for Sale" from July 1, 1938 and "Chicago Crime" from November 14, 1938. The fifth and final in the series, "Realm of Doom" would appear in the following issue, February 1, 1939.
You should read this story if for no other reason than to see The Shadow using a grenade launcher against the hoards of thugs who are closing in upon him. Its one of those rifle grenades made famous in World War II battles. Ride the high seas with The Shadow!" - John Olsen, The Shadow in Review
FYI, this was also published in Thriller Library a few months later over multiple issue in six parts.
