This anthology issue contains two true crime stories. "Obey the Law" depicts criminals who use adhesive tape to kidnap and threaten victims in a rural area, only to be caught when one victim escapes and alerts authorities. "Who Is This Man?" tells the true story of Sheriff Mel Ward's pursuit of a vengeance-killer responsible for two murders of young men, with the climax occurring on a rain-swept evening when the killer is finally tracked down and confronted at the victim's home.

Mac Hunger and His Brother, Gil
12 pp · Crime

Mac and Gil Hunger, freshly released from a Kansas prison, waste no time returning to their criminal ways—orchestrating a series of armed robberies across the Cherokee Strip with ruthless efficiency and a meticulous, if volatile, plan. As the brothers and their gang execute their scheme to steal thousands and evade capture, internal betrayals and a massive manhunt threaten to unravel their operation in a desperate chase across the Midwest. This true crime saga captures the cunning and violence of two of the era's most vicious criminals as the law closes in from all sides.

Keno Rawson

When gangster Keno Rawson emerges from retirement to silence a newspaper columnist who wrote about him, he and his ruthless crew launch a violent crime spree across the South in the early 1930s—hitting banks and gambling houses with brutal efficiency. Law enforcement scrambles to track the Rawson mob across multiple counties, betting that the gang's need for a doctor will be their undoing. This true crime story chronicles the escalating cat-and-mouse game between a desperate criminal and the lawmen determined to bring him to justice.

Who Is This Man?

Sheriff Mel Ward races to solve a brutal murder when Harvey Francis is ambushed and killed by shotgun blast on a rain-soaked October night in 1947. With a vengeful killer still at large and family members mysteriously targeted, Ward must uncover whether old cattle-rustling feuds and mountain vendettas hold the key to the killer's identity. As evidence mounts and suspicion falls on those closest to the crime, the sheriff closes in on a shocking truth.
