CS #58 Classic Crime Noir | The Case of the Gangster’s Ledger | Humphrey Bogart | Sheila Ryan

A hard-driven newspaper editor discovers that the heirs of the late owner are preparing to sell the crusading paper to a purely commercial rival. At first, he sees his looming unemployment as a chance to mend his broken marriage. But when a reporter, chasing a lead on a notorious racketeer, is savagely beaten, the editor is jolted into a full-scale crusade against the crime boss, hoping to connect him to a woman’s murder… all within the three remaining issues before the paper’s end.
