This week, Richard Diamond is hired by a local wrestler, who is convinced that a so-called “hit-and-run” death of his truck driving friend, Mike Burton, is more than just an accident. It doesn’t take long before Diamond is immersed in a smuggling operation that could spell certain death for everyone involved. Meanwhile, Rocky Jordan and his bartender Chris observe an emergency plane landing in the desert, and as they continue to investigate, find that being a witness to even that causes them to get mixed up in stolen ivory statues, sacred to the Memlooks tribe.
In hour 2, we offer another installment of “The Century” as part of Dimestore Revelations. Over with Blackstone, this week, a series of robberies causes him to investigate a fortune teller with an airtight alibi, and a Chess-Playing “mechanical Turk” that seems to be the most likely source of the trouble. And finally, in X-Minus One, the story “Tsylana” offers an unusual view of a perfect utopia, save for one problem: Norman Blake has decided that he must become a deviant, if he wants to save this perfect world from the first common thief in years.
Enjoy!
