- Murdoch is summoned by no less than Prime Minister Laurier to head off the launch of an explosive-armed missile set to be fired from Canada to New York City unless a ransom demand of $4 million is met within the next 24 hours.
- Murdoch finds himself working to save Canada - a request from the Prime Minister, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, no less. Working with Canadian spy Terrence Meyers, Murdoch has less than 24 hours to stop whoever is blackmailing the government for $4 million - or they will fire a rocket on New York City. Information leads them to the wilds of Mississauga where Murdoch comes across none other than James Pendrick who admits to building a rocket. With the information Murdoch gives him, Pendrick realizes someone has been stealing his work. Together, Pendrick and Murdoch race to Niagara-on-the-Lake to stop the missile from being fired.—garykmcd
- Prime Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier needs the Toronto police to help secret agent Terrence Meyers find the long-distance weapon aimed at the US within 24 hours or a blackmailer may start a war with it. Murdoch's scientific mind rejects the canon theory and works out soon it must be a rocket, as he suspected devised by inventor friend James Pendrick, who plans launching himself to the moon aided by Russian lover Svetlana Tsiolkofsky in their country retreat, and as turns out a secret location. Crabtree and colleagues concentrate on blackmail suspects, notably the side-railed rogue minister who was murdered and the Deputy PM, but also a diplomatic link, while the clock is ticking.—KGF Vissers
