The Perfect Crime #24

This anthology issue contains three stories: "The Maniac Killer," about a murderer who escaped from an insane asylum and plans revenge on those who wronged him, using a newspaper headline about a lunatic's wall escape to formulate his deadly scheme; "Time Works with the Law," depicting railroad police confronting criminals attempting to steal valuables from a steel car during a scheduled train stop, with the officers using dynamite to thwart the robbery; and "Night Duty," a prose essay by Sgt. Audley V. Walsh of the Ridgefield Park Police Department reflecting on the philosophical meaning of true liberty and the role of law enforcement in preserving freedom.
