☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis is an anthology issue featuring three crime stories: "Betty Jane Watson—The Jail-Breaking Tigress," in which convicts attempt a prison break from Ferrel Prison and one man falls to his death; "Ann Harris—Queen of Murder," depicting a woman named Ann Harris who murders for thrills and money before meeting her end; and "'Sammy-Boy' Lorrens—The Maniac Gunman," following a small-time criminal whose abnormal taste for garish clothes leads authorities to hunt him down, culminating in a taxi chase where he robs a well-dressed man and is pursued by local law enforcement.
Betty-Jane Watson arrives at a women's prison farm in 1949 as a vicious and uncooperative inmate—a former gang member with a hair-trigger temper and a reputation for violence. When her boyfriend Charlie arranges her escape through a corrupt produce delivery, she seizes the opportunity and flees during a prison show, sparking a desperate chase across the highway. As authorities close in and weeks turn to months, Watson and Charlie's plans to recover their hidden loot and start fresh lead them down a path neither anticipated.
Handsome Hans Randolph, a ruthless ex-mob boss imprisoned at Ferrel Prison, orchestrates a carefully planned breakout using smuggled guns and inside help from a prison trusty. As the desperate escape unfolds across the prison grounds and into a freight tunnel, the warden and his staff race to stop the fleeing convicts before they slip away. Watch as months of scheming collide with swift prison justice in this gritty account of courage under fire.
Ann Harris trades a dead-end job for a life of fast thrills when she meets the brutal hood Red Boylan, and together they run a string of confidence games and robbery schemes on wealthy victims. But as their crimes escalate and the police close in, Ann and Red discover that the violence they've lived by is coming back to haunt them—with nowhere left to run.
"Sammy-Boy" Lorrens is a small-time crook fresh out of prison with a deadly obsession—he robs his victims at gunpoint, stealing their clothes to feed his hunger for flashy outfits. When his violent spree escalates to murder, local authorities launch a coordinated manhunt, using his telltale taste in garish threads to close in on the killer. It's a fast-paced crime tale that shows how smart police work outmatches the schemes of a desperate punk.
