A wealthy heir by day, but at night, Jimmie Dale enjoys breaking into businesses and homes to crack their safes for "the sheer deviltry of it." He doesn't actually steal anything--he does it because he can. He leaves a diamond-shaped gray paper seal at the scene of his crimes and becomes known in the press as The Gray Seal.
His real identity stays secret until he gets caught in the act by a woman who chooses to blackmail him into using his unique talents to help others. Before long, he is taking on organized crime and various bad guys. All the while, he is trying to stay ahead of the police and avoid being discovered by the press. Lots of action and suspense.
The stories are often credited with influencing later pulp and comic book heros like The Green Hornet, The Shadow and of course, Batman.
This book is a compilation of the first two books featuring Jimmie Dale/The Gray Seal: "The Adventures of Jimmie Dale" and "The Further Adventures of Jimmie Dale."
Two wonderful, well-written thrilling and vigorous novels. A must-have for classic action/adventure fans!
