THE MAN WITH MY FACE
What do you do when you come home to your wife, pork chops in hand, ready for dinner, only to find another man in your home who looks exactly like you? Who, in fact, claims to be you? Not only that, but your wife and two best friends agree with him. Even your dog doesn't recognize you. And when you call in a cop, you can't find one bit of identification to back up your claim. If you're Chick Graham, you get the hell out of there and try to figure out what's going on. But whoever this guy is who has taken your place, he's done an excellent job. And not only that, he's robbed a million dollars in bonds, and gotten away with it. And now everyone thinks that you are him!
THE GRINNING GISMO
The letter from Jim asks Hank to come out west to San Francisco and "get close to Clara" but not to let Clara knew who he is. Which is weird enough since Jim is supposed to be dead. But Hank knows the letter had come from Jim because he recognizes the distinctive E's of his old Corona. Then he receives a phone call from a Mr. Smith warning him to stay home or he'll be murdered. Hank decides he has to go. It is soon obvious that he is being followed by a strange couple. Once in San Francisco, he finds Clara, who works for a dentist-she recognizes him immediately. And now he is plagued by blinding headaches, for which the dentist recommends immediate surgery. Something about this whole situation is terribly wrong. If Jim is really still alive.... where the hell is he? And why does he seem to want Hank dead?
