The Traffic Stoppers Case Rod Sterling

After meeting the distraught father of a missing teen-aged girl, Private eye Tony Donohoo takes on the case to help a man who once shared the experience of jumping out of an airplane over France on D-Day. The daughter, Rhoda Woodleigh, was a true beauty who people would stop and gaze at as she walked by. It was up to Tony to discover where she had gone and whether or not she had been abducted. Tony makes inquiries with multiple police departments hoping to find similar missing person cases. Most efforts are rebuffed or ignored, but gradually he discovers over two dozen girls - all knockouts - have disappeared from New Jersey or neighboring states. Following the leads, Tony enlists the aid of his sarcastic but beautiful red-haired girlfriend - Mindy, and sends her undercover to try and discover just what was happening to these girls. With illegal wire taps, the involvement of a Mafia capo, and a growing conspiracy swirling around sex and corruption, Tony and Mindy follow the clues to solve the case. The Traffic Stoppers Case is an old-fashioned gum shoe story faithful to the period, and with a sense of authenticity that will appeal to mystery and detective fans.
