This issue of Journey into Fear is an anthology containing three stories. "Fatal Footsteps" tells of a woman stealing a hanged man's shoes over a century ago, with the tale continuing as modern characters discover a murder gun connected to Lizzie Borden.

"Pages of Death" features a writer named Alvin Penny who uses a magical book and pen to bring fictional characters to life, plotting to murder his rival Roger Horn by manipulating the book's narrative, only to have his plan backfire when the book's logic turns against him.

Hunted by police and fleeing through the mud, he loses the shoes and is captured, facing a fate as grim as the crimes he committed.

With the rival stepping in to save her, the three are caught in a deadly game of escape, where every page holds a new threat.
