No Game For a Dame

A .38, a nip of gin and sensational legs get Depression-era private eye Maggie Sullivan out of any scrape - until a stranger threatens to bust her nose and a client lands her in the cross-hairs of a sadistic crime boss. Matching wits against dangerous men, with bits of information from a dimestore waitress, a ragged newsboy and the girls from her rooming house, Maggie follows a path that leaves her drugged, in her car in a ditch. A gunman puts a bullet through Maggie's hat. Her shutterbug pal on the evening paper warns her off. A new cop with an unsettling presence suspects her. Finally she faces a half-crazed man with a gun, and an equally lethal point-blank killer who tells her snooping is no game for a dame.
