description: Adapted by Frank S. Shawn (AKA Ron Goulart) from Lee Falk's original comic strip THE VEILED LADY is pretty much a straightforward recap of the adventure but with nothing new to replace the visuals lost without the artwork.Rising out of the jungles of Bangalla shrouded by mists and superstitions is the volcano known as the Veiled Lady. What is the mystery of the Veiled Lady? What secrets does she hide from the world? Precious treasure? Unimaginable danger? Many have died trying to find out. Beautiful blonde Jan Love and her companions do find the astounding truth in earth shaking violence that presents a unique challenge even to the Phantom.In this book the Phantom's mission is to rescue the beautiful biologist named Dr. Love and her cohorts. Jan Love has decided to explore the inside of the dormant volcano called the Veiled Lady (named for the streamers of steam and mist that conceal it). A handful of small-time crooks are also interested in the reputed treasure that was thrown into the volcano over the ages so we have a potentially workable plot here....scientists looking for knowledge crooks looking for treasure hero trying to intervene and all of them menaced by the local wildlife.
