(Gwyn Evans) · Illustrator: Eric Parker Other content: Tinker's Notebook Notes: Diana Temple is a Yorkshire lass from a poverty-stricken background. When a specialist reveals to her that she has just six months to live, it brings a reckless quirk in her character to the surface. Donning a skull mask, she becomes Miss Death, a criminal who has nothing to lose. She approaches a man named Hammerton Grice, a crooked lawyer, with the intention of robbing him. When she draws her weapon, he draws his at the same time. The lights go out, a shot is fired, and Grice is killed. But neither he nor she had fired the shot; a third person, heard running away, is responsible (it later emerges that the murderer was one of Grice's victims — he confesses to the crime in a suicide note then shoots himself). Miss Death leaves with Grice's notebook, which is filled with the secrets of the rich and famous. It soon becomes known as The Book of Death. She establishes her base — The House of Secrets — in Leeds and gathers around her a gang of crooks, including Charlie the Chat (thief), Monty Lane (con man), Egloff the Peterman, the Bishop, the Cosher Kid, Civility Smith, Big Pete, Agronsky (the 'Arson King') and Kid Louis (forger). With the exception of Charlie, these men are all unwilling recruits blackmailed into working for her. Their departure from London for Leeds is noticed by Detective-Inspector Coutts and their crimes soon give reason for Sexton Blake to head north. Miss Death is using the criminals to rob from the rich so that she can give to the poor... but they are a vicious lot and when Tinker falls into their hands he is threatened with torture. Blake comes to the rescue and, after a chase — and despite taking a bullet in the shoulder — manages to round up Cosher Kid, Big Pete and Egloff. In return for his efforts, he receives a warning message from Miss Death... Rating: |

(Gwyn Evans) · Illustrator: Eric Parker Other content: Tinker's Notebook; The Isle of Strife by Stacey Blake. Notes: Splash Page travels to Sheffield to see what Sexton Blake is up to. His arrival is noticed by Charlie the Chat and reported to Miss Death. She is concerned about Blake's continued presence in the city and begins to plot against him. Meanwhile, Martin Rutherford, head of the Rutherford Razor empire, receives a visit from a Honduran, Dr Ramon Salvador, who brings with him a native South American named Zapotec. Dr Ramon offers Rutherford an ancient Atzec formula for a depilatory cream — Ica — which is so efficient it could make razors obsolete. His price is five million pounds. Unbeknownst to Rutherford, his visiter is actually Monty Lane, the arch con-man. Rutherford arranges to meet Ramon again that evening along with some other leaders of the razor manufacturing industry. When he learns that Blake, with whom he is acquainted, is in town, he asks the detective to attend. Blake agrees and suggests that he should come along in disguise as 'Professor Browne'. Unfortunately, Miss Death's spies learn of this and her gang of crooks set a trap for the detective. They kidnap him, drug him, and replace him with a disguised villain named Bishop who arrives at the Rutherford meeting pretending to be the detective. There he supports Dr Ramon's assertions about Ica and the razor tycoon is persuaded to invest in the cream's development to a tune of £20,000. However, the scheme starts to go awry when the gang discovers that their captive isn't Sexton Blake at all but a disguised Splash Page. At this point, one of their own men suddenly reveals himself to be an impostor — it's Blake, and he quickly releases Splash in time for the newspaper man to join the subsequent free-for-all. During the fight, Miss Death escapes, though a great many of her gang are rounded up. The tale ends with Sexton Blake receiving a threatening letter from the lady crook. Rating: |

UNION JACK · New series · Issue 1,326 · 16/3/1929 · Amalgamated Press · 2d DEAD MAN'S PLUNDER by Anon. (Robert Murray Graydon) · Illustrator: Eric Parker Other content: Tinker's Notebook; The Isle of Strife by Stacey Blake. Notes: Forty-eight hours have passed since the events of THE TRAIL OF THE BANDAGED MAN (UNION JACK 1,251) and Dr. Satira is still on the loose. While driving near the village of Sixstreet, he accidentally runs over and kills a man. Placing the corpse in the coffin he used to escape at the end of the previous story, he leaves it in the middle of the road. A few miles farther on he is stopped by a man named Mitch Emden who claims to have been robbed of twenty thousand pounds and valuable jewels. Satira realises that it was the thief he had killed, so he leaves Emden and turns back to retrieve the treasure, only to discover that the coffin has vanished. Concluding that it must have been taken to the local police station, he goes there with his two henchmen — Cruller and Dingle. Meanwhile, Sexton Blake, Tinker and Detective-Inspector Coutts — who suspect that Satira is in the area — encounter Emden and hear the same story. They take him to the police station and are immediately imprisoned by Cruller, who masquerades as the local constable. The criminal allows Emden to depart, then Satira sets fire to the station and flees in the Grey Panther, later dumping it in favour of a stolen removal van. Eventually arriving in London, he visits a villain named Black Brogan and asks for help in escaping the country. On his behalf, Brogan takes the stolen jewels to a fence named Dieman, who promises to bring payment for them to Satira's hideaway. However, Dieman is, in fact, Mitch Emden, who has a double identity for his less-than-honest dealings. Recognising his own jewels, he decides to tell Sexton Blake where Satira is. Before he can make the call, Blake arrives on his doorstep, having traced him. Later, the disguised detective accompanies Dieman to the doctor's hideout and slaps handcuffs onto the villain. He summons the police but before they arrive Brogan shoots Dieman and activates a trapdoor through which Blake falls into the Thames. The criminals try to escape in a boat but Blake capsizes it. Brogan drowns but Doctor Satira is finally captured and sent to prison where he will be hanged for his crimes. Trivia Sexton Blake purchased the Grey Panther for nearly three thousand guineas. This story was reprinted in DETECTIVE WEEKLY issue 306 as DR. SATIRA TAKES IT ALL (1938). Rating: |

They murder the young inventor by pushing him under a train, then they deliver the formula to Fairleigh. Stapler's fiance travels to London to ask Sexton Blake to investigate the killing. Meanwhile, Miss Death has fallen in with Sir Hector Jarman, an insane surgeon who has a grudge against the wool industry. While Miss Death intends to extort money from Fairleigh to give to the poor, Jarman's motives are altogether more ambitious and deadly. Sexton Blake visits Fairleigh's home only to learn that its owner has departed with Miss Death and 'Blake' — a man impersonating himself. This impostor is Bishop who, with Charlie the Chat and Miss Death, escorts the wool tycoon to Greystoke Towers, home of Jarman. Here they force him to write a cheque for twenty-five thousand pounds. Meanwhile, Lady Fairleigh is terribly injured in a car crash. She is discovered by Jarman's African servant who, recognising her as the woman to whom his master was once engaged, carries her to Greystoke Towers. There, she dies, sending Jarman into a berserk rage. He rampages through the grounds with an axe and sets free his pet; a giant lizard — a Komodo Dragon — named Sohag the Terrible. Blake and Tinker arrive, having been led to the house by Pedro who has followed Mrs Fairleigh's scent from the scene of the car crash. They shoot the lizard dead. Jarman kills Lord Fairleigh then breaks free from the detectives and jumps into a pool of piranha fish which eat him alive. Miss Death and her cohorts escape from the house which, when searched by Blake, offers up a secret: Jem Stapler! The mangled body on the train tracks had never been his; it was placed there by Miss Death's gang to fool Fairleigh into thinking he was guilty of murder. The formula handed to him had also been fake and Stapler had been kept safe and out of the way by the strange villainess. Rating: |

(Gwyn Evans) · Illustrator: Eric Parker Other content: Tinker's Notebook; Scissors Cut Paper by Gerard Fairlie Notes: This issue marks the end of Miss Death. In Doncaster, a new locomotive - The Black Prince - gains an evil reputation after two of its drivers drop dead on the footplate. On both occasions, a young man named Jack Laidlaw was left to drive the train, making him something of a hero in the newspapers. Splash Page is covering the story, as is Abel Zorn, an American journalist from a rival newspaper owned by Hogan Flint, a millionaire. Flint has set up a coach service to rival the railways and is stirring discontent among the railway unions. When Laidlaw sees a skeletal figure at the rail yard one night, he approaches Sexton Blake, who agrees to investigate after surmising that Miss Death might be involved. He's correct; Miss Death and her cohorts, The Bishop and Monty Lane, are out to get Hogan Flint. Tinker shadows Monty to Miss Death's hideaway and overhears their plans to extort money from the evil millionaire. Unfortunately, he then trips over Miss Death's cat and is captured by the criminals. Miss Death visits the rail yard to leave a note warning that Flint has sabotaged the line, intending to wreck the The Black Prince. However, she's interrupted by Blake who arrives on the scene having worked out Flint's plan. Miss Death flees from the detective but her weak heart finally gives out and she dies, just managing to reveal Tinker's whereabouts before succumbing. Hogan Flint, upon hearing that his plans are exposed, commits suicide. The Bishop and Monty Lane are rounded up by Detective-Inspector Coutts. Rating: |

UNION JACK · New series · Issue 1,354 · 28/9/1929 · Amalgamated Press · 2d THE CASE OF THE THREE BLACK CATS by Anon. (Edward Searles Brooks) · Illustrator: Eric Parker Other content: Tinker's Notebook; The Seven Sleepers by Francis Beeding. Notes: A magistrate, Mr Stanhope, asks Sexton Blake's advice after his black cat, Juno, is poisoned and posted to him. He suspects that the deed was done by a man named Thomas Brand, who he'd convicted some five years ago. Brand, now released from prison, had been accused of being the notorious 'Black Cat' — a cat burglar — though he always maintained his innocence. Clifford Scott K. C. and a judge named Sir Charles Row also receive dead black cats in the post, and they, too, had been involved in the Brand case. The next event is a murder: Sir Howard Denison is found poisoned, dressed in the skintight black suit used by the cat burglar. Detective-Inspector Lennard is at the crime scene and, with Blake, finds a note stuck to the dead man's forehead: Black Cat! You have taken your last prowl! Blake visits Scotland Yard and, upon emerging, finds a dandified young man sitting in the Grey Panther who introduces himself as Eustace Cavendish. Eustace tells the detective that he witnessed a man capturing and poisoning a cat. The man, Eustace later discovered, was Rev. Smiles — a man whose background is obscure. Thanking the amateur detective for his information, Blake visits the scene of Denison's murder and concludes that Lennard is on the wrong track in his pursuit of Brand. Returning to Baker Street, he finds Eustace there. The 'swell' young man reveals that he has been shadowing Smiles and overheard him enquire after a financier named Harland — another character whose history is mysterious. Blake and Eustace break into Smiles' house and they find evidence that he has been maniplating shares on the stock market. Denison's death made him a profit in that respect — and Harland's would do so too. Blake visits the financier the next morning to warn him that he is probably Smiles' next target. He finds himself looking down the barrel of a pistol. It turns out that Harland and Smiles are one and the same man! Blake locks him in his own strong room and summons Lennard. However, when the room is opened, Harland has vanished through a secret second door. Eustace, though, has seen and followed him, and calls Blake to inform him that Harland is currently hiding out in a bungalow in Twickenham. The police surround the premises but are held at bay when Harland starts shooting at them with a machine gun. Blake climbs through a skylight and pounces on the crook but as he does so a police marksman shoots Harland in the chest. As he dies, the criminal confesses that he used to work with the Black Cat — Denison — but had been betrayed by him. He had killed him and tried to frame a petty crook — Brand — for the murder. Trivia: Sexton Blake dons a bullet-proof chain-mail vest during this case. This item of clothing has been mentioned in other adventures. Rating: |

UNION JACK · New series · Issue 1,362 · 23/11/1929 · Amalgamated Press · 2d THE GNOMID by Gilbert Chester (H. H. Clifford Gibbons) · Illustrator: J. H. Valda Other content: Tinker's Notebook; The Seven Sleepers by Francis Beeding. Notes: An aristocratic family with a curse, a perilous marsh, and a hideous beast bringing death to those unfortunate enough to encounter it. There's a definite touch of Hound of the Baskervilles about this one. But of course, it's Blake not Holmes, so H. H. Clifford Gibbons throws in as many extra ingredients as possible: a thrilling aeroplane chase which ends in a mid-air collision, a lake-bottom hideaway which floods with our heroes trapped inside, a raging inferno and plenty of fist fights. The story begins with Warrender, a hulking great man, observing the comings and goings in a disreputable drinking den. In fact, he is a leading West End actor studying for a role. But things get out of hand and a fight erupts during which he retrieves a roll of canvas. To his amazement, it's a painting by Van Dyke; a portrait of a beautiful girl. He takes the painting to Sexton Blake who immediately recognises it as the recently stolen property of Lord Carham. Blake, Tinker and Warrender set off for the Fens, a large expanse of extremely flat land in the east of England. The author does a great job of creating a still and silent, mist enshrouded landscape. Before they've even had a chance to meet him, Lord Carham is murdered, his chest punctured by huge wide-spread claws. And through the mist, Blake captures a glimpse of a hunched, animal-like figure. It is, the house servant tells them, the gnomid, a legendary creature that has cursed the Carham family for generations. A painting of it hangs on the wall, hidden behind a tapestry. Every time the painting is shown, so the legend goes, something terrible happens. Incidentally, the artwork on the cover of this edition of UNION JACK is a superb rendition of the monstrous beast. Before Blake has time to investigate further, there's another shock. A girl comes crashing through the glass of the patio doors. Fortunately, she is not badly hurt and is able to explain that she was on her way to an appointment with a local landowner when she was chased by the creature. Bizarrely, she bears an uncanny resemblance to the girl in the Van Dyke portrait. How does she relate to the mystery? What is the creature? And who's behind the deadly conspiracy? Of course, Blake gets to the bottom of it (and, simultaneously, to the bottom of a lake). This was reprinted under the same title in DETECTIVE WEEKLY issue 342 (1939) Rating: |
