When Ma Beamus decides to mold her children into a ruthless criminal empire, she trains Joe, Lou, and Betty in everything from marksmanship to getaway driving—turning petty theft into armed robbery and murder. Years later, after graduating to kidnapping, the Beamus gang snatches a man named Haven for ransom, but their success sets them on a collision course with the F.B.I.

From a reckless schoolgirl who talked a boy into stealing a car, she's become the notorious Angel Face, a cold-blooded schemer whose looks have gotten her out of trouble time and again, right up to a murder charge she shouldn't have beaten. But when she decides the only witness to her crime is expendable, her luck finally runs out.

In 1948's "The Human Gorilla," a brutal criminal known by that very name launches a reign of terror that begins with a senseless act of violence fifteen years before the main story unfolds. What follows is a rampage of robberies and assaults across the West Coast, as the vicious thug leaves a trail of destruction—and bodies—in his wake, taunting police at every turn. The authorities close in on this skull-shattering menace, but stopping someone as remorseless and savage as the Human Gorilla will demand everything they have.
