Synopsis
Cyrus McCrady, executive director of the Kyne publishing empire, is dead, and it’s Walter Kyne’s job to choose his successor. There are four worthy candidates: Arnold Lamin, editor-in-chief of the Kyne newswire service; John Day Griffith, editor of the Sentinel, the key New York paper; Harry Kritzer, chief of the Kyne photo service; and Mark Loving, head of the feature syndicate. Walter Kyne also has a big murder story to cover, and makes it clear to the four of them that the man who gets the scoop, gets the job. The murder is a savage affair—two women stabbed to death, and a small child dismembered. It’s not clear at first that these are the work of just one young man. But Sentinel’s ace reporter, Ed Mobley, has an in at the police department, and tracks the crimes for Griffith. They break the news that the murders are the work of one person. And while each of the four candidates jockey for the best position on the story, the killer stalks his next victim, driven by a twisted desire, unable to stop… *Film Noir Classic 14*

About the Author
Charles Einstein was born August 2, 1927 in Boston, Massachusetts. He attended the University of Chicago and started working for International News Service, which would eventually become part of UPI. While there he wrote his first novel, The Bloody Spur, based on the crimes of a university student labeled “The Lipstick Killer.” Einstein moved to San Francisco in the late ‘50s to work for the Examiner where he began covering the Giants and became friends with Willie Mays, co-authoring his memoir. He went on to write more novels as well as an episode of Lou Grant. Einstein is best known as a veteran newsman, novelist, sportswriter and TV writer, but he is also the half-brother of actor-director Albert Brooks and comedian “Super-Dave Osborne.” In semi-retirement, Einstein moved back East and returned to news writing. He died on March 7, 2007, in Michigan City, Indiana.
