THE CONCANNON by Frank O'Rourke

THE CONCANNON

By

Publisher: Houghton, Mifflin

Concannon, special agent for the Grand Northern RR, is called in when a fellow dick, on the trail of smuggling, is murdered. Concannon, with fake seals on the freights to track down, tours the yards and the rails, the power politics boys and the racketeers, passes by the small fry to nab the big ones and smashes alien entry as well as commercial smuggling in his clean sweep. Terse, untender, this is also solid with railroad techniques.
