The Adventures of Frank Race starring Paul Dubov, with Tony Barrett as Mark Donovan. The war, the face of the earth and the people on it.

Before the war,

the face of the earth and the people on it.

Before the war, Frank Race worked as an attorney, but he traded his law books for

the cloak and dagger of the OSS, and when it was over, his former life was over too. Adventure had become his business. The adventures of Frank Rake. Oh, And now we join Frank Grace for the adventure of the Pharaoh's staff. Dead men and the worldly possessions they leave behind are often the concern of an insurance investigator.

Farats on common.

It's his tomb that the archaeologists have just uncovered.

All right, that's great.

A greener Clark has insured a few items who were dug up in the tomb.

Items of fabulous value if the estimates are correct, especially the staff of the Pharaoh.

Well, of course, but what's that?
