Ivory Anderson tells his men of an elephant named "Gargan" that had four ivory tusks, probably long dead by now. But what interests him most is that Airboy is flying to the elephant graveyard where Gargan will most likely be found and he wants those tusks. Ivory reaches his destination, but Gargan is still living and remembers the time gangster Anderson abused him.; After winning 1st Prize at the National Model Plane Show with his entry: an exact copy of Airboy's plane, Birdie, he meets with a soldier friend of his and tells him about the Heap. Suddenly, a group of thugs interrupt and demand a package containing the Emmelman Pearls, the soldier is carrying for a friend of his. When Tom doesn't come across with it, they kill Tom and knock out Rickie. Rickie then uses his model of Birdie to locate the thugs, and when Rickie is captured and buried alive, Rickie uses Birdie to circle the area. The Heap sees it, saves the boy but takes the pearls.; A famed but abused watch maker invents an ugly but powerful pair of gloves that can give anyone tremendous, deadly strength in their hands......strength now used by the daughter of a murdered tobacco king to exact justice!; Britain discovers that a murdered night club watchman has traces of iron rust in his blood, and wonders if this murder is in any way related to the disappearance of the night club's star performer who had escaped from a Tiger Cult in Indo-China.
