Back of Jewel Case - DOS (UK):
    CANRBY looked up. The threatening face of HELL'S KITCHEN, an old mansion high on the cliff top, overhanging the Pacific's treacherous waves, loomed down on him. All those long hours spent on the firing range and unarmed combat would certainly not go to waste now.

    Ever since CARNBY was ALONE IN THE DARK in DERCETO, his colleagues have started calling him "Supernatural Private Eye". The saga continues!

    Christmas Eve 1924, CARNBY's thoughts are with poor little GRACE, an innocent 8-year old child recently kidnapped by a gang of bootleggers. Come what may, he has to save her from the evil clutches of ONE EYED JACK.

    Mazes, trap doors, secret passageways, deadly gangsters, blood-thirsty pirates, ghost ships, ruthless smugglers... These kind of encounters can be so fatal when you're alone,
    ALONE IN THE DARK...
