Synopsis
THE DEVIL HIS DUE: Handsome Dicky Corrigan figures the world owes him. And if the world isn’t going to give him what he’s due, he’s just going to take it. Blair is his latest mark. She’s finagled rich boy Tom Bartwell into proposing marriage, and doesn’t want anything to get in the way of her plans. She certainly doesn’t want her past association with a gangster to be made public. She’s got Tom, and his over-bearing father right where she wants them. But once Dicky gets a hold over her, Blair’s life becomes hell. And she’s not alone—nobody stands in Dicky’s way, not even if it means murder. DOUBLES IN DEATH: Alan Patterson is an ad executive and Lucy Hanson a receptionist in the building, and during lunch, he strikes up a conversation with her. Alan is happily married but he can’t help but notice the obvious attention of young Lucy—she’s always staring at him. Still, Alan has no idea how infatuated Lucy is with him. She starts calling him at home. At first Alan’s wife Judy brushes her off, but then Lucy sends a letter, and her concern begins to grow. Alan tries to put a stop to Lucy, but she just doesn’t seem to get the message. Then Merle enters the scene. He also works in the building. Merle dreams of the soft life. He wants what Alan has—all of it.
