Showgirl Donna Blake sees a chance to escape her ordinary life when she stumbles onto stolen bonds and marked money during a violent confrontation at the Mirror Club—but her greed blinds her to the danger lurking behind every dollar. On the run with the loot and assuming a false identity, she discovers too late that her new "husband" and his associates have far deadlier plans for her than the law ever would.

The Squeeze
4.67 pp

Nola Latour runs a vicious blackmail racket using an infra-red camera to capture compromising photographs in the dark, then squeezes wealthy targets for cash to keep the images under wraps. But when her scheme crosses the wrong person—someone with a very personal reason for wanting justice—Nola discovers that the squeeze can work both ways. This 1952 crime story shows exactly why preying on others' secrets is a dangerous game.

During Chicago's bootleg era, hijacker Mike Pollard plots to steal a shipment of Canadian whiskey from rival Ralph Mercer's cabin cruiser—a plan that goes bloodily wrong when Mercer's men discover the theft and come looking for revenge. With the law closing in and bullets flying, Pollard finds himself hunted from all sides in a desperate race across the frozen landscape. This tale of double-cross and retribution shows how greed and violence in the underworld can spiral beyond anyone's control.
