From a gang of corrupt policemen to secret Nazis saboteurs out to destroy the Los Angeles Olympics, the beautiful and wily crime-fighter has her hands full in this new quartet of tales. As always, lovely socialite Ellen Patrick weaves her way in and out of trouble, donning her black silk domino mask whenever injustice rears its ugly head. From the time of her father's murder, Ellen has dedicated herself to righting wrongs. She just does it in a most peculiar fashion, becoming the pulps' most alluring and deadly hero: the Domino Lady.

The Domino Lady first appeared in the pulps in 1936. After graduating from the Berkeley College in California, Ellen Patrick goes off to Europe on a joy-filled jaunt. Her trip is cut short when her widowed father, DA Owen Patrick, is murdered by gangsters. Upon her return home she learns the corrupt authorities have no intention of finding her father's killers. Thus she puts on a domino mask and a backless white dress to avenge him.

When Dr. Miles Murdoch's brother was murdered by the mobs, he vowed vengeance. In the following weeks, wearing a horrifying death mask, a new avenger appeared on the streets of Akelton, bringing with him righteous retribution. The city now finds itself under the protection of a haunted hero, a mysterious angel of doom who metes out his own brand of permanent justice.
