The Radio Detectives in the Jungle

"The Radio Detectives in the Jungle" by A. Hyatt Verrill is an early 20th-century adventure that plunges young detectives Tom Pauling and Frank, along with their crew, back into a dangerous hunt for a clever criminal mastermind who keeps slipping through their fingers. Set in the hurricane-ravaged Caribbean, the story kicks off with the detectives aboard a damaged ship, puzzling over the disappearance of their foe, who they believe is hiding close by. They travel to various islands, questioning locals and chasing clues, while the threat of looming danger grows, especially when an SOS signal hints at deeper trouble ahead.
