There was no clue to the kidnapping of wealthy, powerful men and beautiful, talented women-until the Man Who Dealt in Death broke into Richard Wentworth's stroll in the moonlight with the wanton wounding of his own lookout. From that stricken gangster Wentworth obtained the first hint of the devil-brain that was using science and surgery, death and torture and extortion, to enslave the city's great. And Wentworth, better known as the Spider, answered the challenge of the Laboratory of the Lost-gambling life and more against weird dangers that no man had ever faced before!

Without any forewarning, the madness struck. One moment the busy steel-mill town of Keystone was a peaceful industrial community... the next, it had become a shambles of murder, madness and ruthless midnight slaughter. Horror walked its streets, and terror lurked in every close-locked home... Could the Spider, hastening to answer the distressed call of the dismayed inhabitants, prevail against the death which struck from darkness? A stranger in a place of madness, unsupported by friends or allies, Richard Wentworth faces his greatest test-alone!
