Global had shelled out $75,000, the rock had never turned up, and now sundry trigger-happy characters were all itching for the fateful day.</ins></div></td></tr>

A corpse with no identity - except a bundle of clippings on the Rajah Emerald case. Rick took it from there, talked to Duryea's hard-boiled girl friend just before she died, followed the trail through to a respectable jewel merchant who blew the top of his head off rather than answer questions - and puzzled over the strange behavior of an ex-bank messenger now turned Yogi and apparently unafraid of dying.</ins></div></td></tr>
