DEVIL ON TWO STICKS

Man-hunt from the other side of the fence, for this time it is the racketeers -- in gambling, liquor, women, and maybe drugs -- who are avid to find the spy in their midst, the attorney-general's agent on their payroll who is working against them. And it is up to trusted Steve Beck to protect his boss' interests, to knock off those whom he suspects, to prove his own honesty, and to take it on the chin when love, as well as the truth comes along. As a solo California crime wave, Beck beats it out the hard way.
