<DIV><b>A corrupt P.I. will do anything to make a buck and save his own skin</b></div><DIV><BR></div><DIV>Joe Puma didn&rsquo;t kill Albert Target, but he is happy the pimp is dead. A small-time creep whose niche was recruiting wannabe actresses, Target perjured himself for Puma&rsquo;s sake, and the detective was afraid he might decide to talk. The cops know that Puma&rsquo;s crooked, but they can&rsquo;t prove a thing. He&rsquo;s a slick operator with an itchy trigger finger and a flimsy moral code&mdash;two things he&rsquo;ll need if his next case is to end as happily as his last.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>Fallen starlet Jean Roland comes to Puma with a plan to blackmail her lesbian lover&rsquo;s father&mdash;a dangerous scheme that would put Puma off if Roland weren&rsquo;t the most stunning woman in Los Angeles. Joe Puma likes money and he likes being alive, but he likes women even more. He&rsquo;d die for a girl like Jean Roland&mdash;but he&rsquo;d prefer it if someone else died first.</div>
