05 - Doors of the Night by Frank L. Packard

Immerse yourself in the gripping saga of 1922 New York City, where a chilling murder and a half-million dollar heist set the stage for a tale of duplicity, danger, and the dark underbelly of society. A false accusation opens a secret passage into the citys underworld, introducing a mysterious woman, a masked man, a corrupt lawyer, and a cache of stolen jewels. With every hour, our protagonist edges closer to a sea of crime, a world teeming with murder, bloodshed, sordid viciousness, and hatred. As summarized by Delmar H. Dolbier, “Every hour promises not just a desperate peril to himself but a plunge into a dark sea of crime, shuddering things, murder, and blood.”
