A disheveled dark-haired man, tie undone, sits slumped at a kitchen table, clutching the side of the table with one hand and a glass in the other. Before him on the table are a bottle, a shot glass, a pack of cigarettes, a book of matches, and an ashtray. The red checked table cloth is askew. In the background stands a blonde woman in evening dress, looking at the man as she pulls a pistol from her red evening bag.
At head of title on front cover: He plunged into crime to flee the terrible secret of his past.
Line drawing of two men standing beneath a streetlight. Image framed by a purple hatched semi-circle border.
White background with black text.
Roaring lion face in profile on front, back, and spine.
