The issue contains at least two stories. "Mutiny at Bradburn" depicts a prison uprising where inmates, led by a prisoner named Nate, stage a riot at Bradburn State Prison after his mother dies from a broken heart caused by his incarceration; a guard named Broderick monitors the situation closely and ultimately quells the disturbance. "Louie Donato—Boss of the Convicts" follows the underworld kingpin Louie Donato, who possesses powerful criminal connections and is determined to escape from prison; after two years, he breaks out and is later apprehended by police. A third story involves a burglar alarm installation and a jewelry store heist planned by criminals who disable the alarm system at a mid-town jewelry store.

Louie Donato - Boss of the Convicts
6 pp · Crime

Louie Donato, a ruthless underworld boss sentenced to life imprisonment, uses his cunning and remaining connections to orchestrate an audacious prison break—smuggling guns inside and inciting a riot to create chaos while he seizes the warden as a hostage. But his own men discover his true nature when fortune shifts, and Donato learns the hard way that honor among thieves is a myth.

The Double Cross

Harry CarterBurt Jones

Harry Carter's criminal schemes unravel when his partner Burt Jones turns on him. After the two pull off a jewelry store heist that turns deadly, Jones decides to set a trap at another job—one designed to land Carter behind bars while Jones grabs the profits for himself. But in 1952 crime noir fashion, a double-cross has a way of catching up with everyone involved.
