Orrie Hitt's 1954 pulp classic is back and better than ever in a brand new acid-free trade paperback still sporting its original Walter Popp cover.
From the original: Johnny Reagan quickly learned the slum's depraved rules for survival. At six, he was a petty thief. At twelve, he was a procurer. At twenty-one, he was a respectable, lovable, 18-carat heel who never missed a trick--especially if she promised an evening's cheap thrills. Then rich Mr. Connors befriended Johnny, and Johnny knew there was big money to be made--if he pulled the right strings, told the right lies, and played around with the right women. But Johnny played with Julie . . . Julie who had been brought up in the same slum that had spawned Johnny--and who knew all the cute gutter tricks Johnny thought were his exclusive property . . . plus a few female tricks all her own. A tough and lusty novel that moves with the white-heat of a lightning bolt!
