by Philip King

So swift is the action, so involved the situations, so rib-tickling the plot in this London hit that at its finish audiences are left as exhausted from laughter as though they had run a foot race. Galloping in and out of the four doors of an English vicarage are an American actor and actress (he is now stationed with the Air Force in England), a cockney maid who has seen too many American movies, an old maid who "touches alcohol for the first time in her life," four men in clergyman suits presenting the problem of which is which (for disguised as one is an escaped prisoner), and a sedate Bishop aghast at all these goings-on and the trumped up stories they tell him.

by Lewis Carroll and Charlotte Chorpenning

With her keenly perceptive eye, Mrs. Chorpenning has adapted this famous story for very young audiences. Chasing the White Rabbit, Alice tumbles down the rabbit hole into Wonderland. She meets all its famous residents: the King of Hearts, Red Queen, White Queen, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, the Gryphon, Mock Turtle, the Dormouse, Mad Hatter and March Hare, the Frog Footman, the Dutchess, the Caterpillar and White Rabbit.

by Morland Cary

The villianous Simon Darkway seeks to control the Walker Valley, Pine Bush & Pacific R.R. for his own vile purposes. Assisting him are Dirk Sneath, a viper of a man, and Carlotta Cortez, the sultry siren with a heart of gold. Fortunately, the gallant Truman Pendennis, the beauteous Prudence Hopewell, the Widow Hopewell, and staunch Harold Standfast oppose the sinister schemes of this wicked trio. Swiftly and hilariously, the classic melodramatic plot unfolds, leading to a tremendous climax when the hero is inescapably bound by the villains to the tracks of an onrushing train. Thankfully, it is our heroine who arrives just in the nick of time to stop the train and save the day. And now, with virtue at last triumphant, the evildoers get their just deserts.

by Gary Weisgerber

Harry Lockwood, a down-on-his-luck private eye in Hollywood, takes a trip up north to his mid-Willamette Valley home where he pays a visit to his boyhood chum, Bill Roberts. Roberts is now a highly respected radio personality who needs Lockwood's help with a rather delicate situation.  As a result, Lockwood becomes enmeshed in a tangled web of blackmail, betrayal and embarrassing secrets which has ensnared the station staff and could well turn deadly. One or more of the people Lockwood encounters may have murdered before and may do so again. It is up to Lockwood to determine who the troublemaker is and protect the intended victims.
