The 3 Carol Day Story Books included with this Slipcase are: Riverside Racket - the 8th story, published in 1958: a tale of passion and murder! Not seen since its original publication. Last of the Line - the 13th story, published in 1960. Cousin Hugo - the 25th story, published in 1963-64: Carol's wayward cousin and his criminal predilection.
