| Synopsis: |
"a grim, sardonic story of London's underworld, of gang rivalry for control of such profitable enterprises as dope-peddling, the dogs, and 'protection.' [The author] takes the reader to police headquarters, to a gang ruler's trial, to barrooms and nightclubs, into hoodlums' conferences, and into the night streets of London where violence flames suddenly. These vivid scenes compose a realistic picture of the jungle in a great city; they tell an exciting story; and they create an arresting portrait of the woman called Blondie Iscariot." |
