Summary: "Curlie Carson Listens In" by Roy J. Snell is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Curlie Carson, a talented young radio operator who becomes entangled in a web of intrigue and mystery as he attempts to track down illegal radio transmissions causing potential harm to ships at sea. As Curlie navigates the complexities of radio communication and detection, he encounters various characters, including a wealthy millionaire and his daughter, who play significant roles in a broader plot involving adventure, danger, and the quest for hidden treasure.
