Hoodlum from Hollywood
8 pp · crime

During Hollywood's golden age, washed-up actor Marty Franz uses his insider knowledge of the film industry to orchestrate a daring jewel heist on a movie set—and it's just the beginning of a crime spree that will make him rich and famous, even if it costs lives. As Lieutenant Carnihan hunts the desperate criminal across Los Angeles, Franz leads a ruthless gang of former Prohibition-era gangsters on a reign of terror through the city's wealthy elite, determined to prove that the producers and directors who destroyed his career made a fatal mistake.

Crime's Ten-percenter
7 pp · crime

When efficiency expert Rick Slade emerges from a five-year prison stretch, he turns his criminal talents toward organization itself—launching a ruthless "crime agency" that operates out of a fake brokerage office, supplying specialized thieves and gunmen to clients for a ten-percent cut of the take. As the operation flourishes with a series of perfectly executed jobs, the police department finds itself outmaneuvered by an invisible mastermind, while Slade's growing empire runs like a well-oiled machine. This 1954 crime tale tracks the rise of a criminal entrepreneur who proves that the real power in the underworld lies not in pulling triggers, but in managing talent.

Prey of the Harbor Shark
8 pp · crime

When a young dockside thug named Mango rises from petty theft to leading a ruthless river piracy operation, Sgt. McLean of the harbor police finds himself locked in a deadly pursuit against one of the waterfront's most dangerous criminals. As Mango and his gang escalate from mugging tourists to raiding warehouses using an armed speedboat, the stakes grow higher—and so does the body count. This hard-boiled tale chronicles the meteoric and brutal rise of a criminal who learned early that crime pays, right up until the waterfront claims what it always does.

Spoor of the High Octane Bandit
7 pp · crime

Officer Ed's search for the gas station bandit who's been terrorizing the city takes a devastating turn when the trail of stolen cars and holdups leads him closer to home than he ever wanted to discover. As a father and a cop, Ed must grapple with the possibility that his own son Lance—recently released from the state farm and seemingly given a fresh start with a new wife—may be the criminal he's been hunting. With each robbery, the pieces of a tragic puzzle fall into place, forcing Ed to confront whether his past failures as a parent have led his son down an irreversible path.
