Synopsis by Hal Erickson

This episode of the weekly TV series Name of the Game was first telecast December 20, 1968. As in every 90-minute episode of Game, the story concentrates on the exploits of an employee of Crime magazine. This time the focus is on researcher Peggy Maxwell (Susan St. James), who is kidnapped while digging up information on a famous rock star. The series' regular male stars (Gene Barry, James Farentino and Robert Stack) sit this one out, permitting correspondent Andy Hill (Cliff Potter) to investigate Peggy's disappearance. With the help of FBI agent Susan Strasberg, Hill unearths a hotbed of mob-motivated intrigue.
