☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe issue contains two crime stories with moralistic conclusions. "Proof That Crime Never Pays" follows Tom Vance, a criminal who plans a heist in Binghamton but is ultimately caught and sentenced, demonstrating the futility of his crimes. "Murder, Incorporated" depicts gangsters involved in kidnapping and murder in Philadelphia who are pursued by police; the story ends with a shootout where criminals are killed or captured, reinforcing that their illegal activities lead to violent ends.
Walter Laganza rules a ruthless gang out of Richmond, Virginia, stealing over two hundred thousand dollars and leaving a trail of dead bodies—guided by his brutal code that dead men tell no tales and women are always dangerous. When the F.B.I. finally closes in during a Washington D.C. shootout, Laganza escapes, but his grip on his organization begins to crack, setting him on a collision course with those he's wronged. This true crime tale from 1949 shows how even the most violent criminals can't outrun justice forever.
Marty Cagle walks out of prison in 1941 with promises to go straight, but his crooked mind has other plans—robbery, violence, and a string of crimes across three states that keeps law enforcement scrambling to catch up. When a botched robbery and a desperate gunfight leave a policeman dead and Cagle on the run, the manhunt intensifies into a high-speed chase that will test whether he can outrun the law closing in from all sides.
