omen, other more industrious citizens cash in on the
opportunity to make a fast buck, both in tourism and
securing the rumored 1 billion in gold believed
still on board! What’s more, Richard faces a murder
rap and it’s up to Conan to clear his good name. But
when the two prime suspects are themselves murdered,
Conan is left clueless. As the death toll rises,
could the curse of those poor souls lost on the
doomed vessel be true?

another space ship on the way to the Galaxy Police

graduation day!
