The Big Corner — Edward Drobinski

Its 1946 in totally corrupt Bayway Town, New Jersey. Its hot and Truman’s inflation is raging, interesting everyone in collectibles. Private eye, Sam Shovelin, is hired by a woman who said that her boyfriend was murdered and his watch was stolen. The police blamed a drifter, which she does not believe. Sam gets suspicious of her story when she’s more concerned about the watch than her former boyfriend, but takes the case because he needs the money.
