"The Seven Drop of Blood"


 'Seven priceless rubies; seven ruthless killers to combat - but it was The Shadow's unfaltering sixth sense that led him, step by step, to The Seven Drops of Blood.' --The Shadow Wiki 

Well, that synopsis sure makes the cover redundant.  And does this count as a "hand" cover?  I see the famous girasol ring amongst those rubies.  This is the 115th published adventure and the 114th of Gibson's novels. And, it seems, it may be the low point of the fabulous 1936 run.  I have yet to read it so I can't speak from experience.  Perhaps your opinion will differ.
