Fight against Crime #2

Johnny Sulak, a small but brutally strong underworld czar, murders his way to total control of the rackets in a Midwestern city, leaving detectives baffled by the strength required to commit such crimes—until a careless match cover bearing a woman's name provides the crucial lead. When police officer Mary Fisk goes undercover as a newcomer to get close to him, the hunt intensifies to stop the runt-sized king of the hoods before his reign of violence claims more victims.

Tommy Carr, a cocksure young bandit with a baby face, leads his gang on a brazen crime spree across Chicago—robbing, shooting, and outwitting the police at every turn with clever disguises and ruthless audacity. When the police finally get a break through Carr's weakness for his girlfriend Mary, they set a trap using her as unwitting bait to corner the arrogant criminal. The District Attorney narrates how law and order ultimately write the final chapter on Carr's reign of terror.
