Clyde Cullen drowns in debt to a ruthless casino owner and faces a brutal deadline to pay—until a desperate idea takes shape: fake his own death using an unsuspecting stranger's body, collect the insurance, and vanish from his troubles. But when an insurance investigator begins digging into the circumstances of Cullen's "murder," the carefully constructed lie starts to unravel, and the real killer's identity becomes dangerously close to exposure. In this 1950 crime tale, a man discovers that staging your own death is far easier than staying dead.
