The Black Museum | (018) The Hammerhead | 1951–1952 ||

| The dead woman’s sister gets the hunt down the trail going when suspicious activity surrounds a telegram, and the woman’s travel plans. The questioning begins, but where will it all lead? What will turn up?

A bloody hammerhead with no handle is found, but now it’s time to link it to the crime. One link in the Hain after another fall into place, a chain of events, a likely suspect, and the dots are connected. Drugs are involved, and with some applied pressure the pusher cracks and tells all he knows. The investigation comes full circle, but who is the killer?
