In The Night Operator you will follow with spellbound interest a panorama of rushing mountain rivers and dangerous curves, of brave men responsible for the safety of others, who meet their obligations with high hearts and abounding courage. When the book is read, you will recall with delight Toodles, the spunky little night operator; Royal Carlton, the big superintendent; Regan, the purposeful master-mechanic, and Tim O'Toole, the valorous Irishman, and say to yourself, Packard has done it again -- written another breathless adventure story. Although not a detective story, The Night Operator, because of its thrilling adventures, will appeal to all readers and lovers of a story full of action and life...........
