His personal interest is suddenly doubled by the abduction ofthe young sister of his fiancee, Mary Barton. Burke, assisted by Mary,tracks the evil doers. After a sensational series of fights mixed withthrilling detective work, many women, including the young sister, aresaved. The operations of the gangsters, in securing victims from theemigrant ships, the railroad stations and the working classes are shown ina manner treated delicately, yet imbued with a powerful moral lesson. Thetender love story of Bobbie and Mary purges the book of the morbiditywhich it would otherwise possess.
