Summary

The guilty: War veterans Mike Carr and Johnny Dixon are roommates in a low-rent tenement. They are romantically entangled with twin sisters Estelle and Linda Mitchell. When one sister turns up dead, the boys are hounded by a suspicious police inspector although there's no shortage of suspectsHigh tide: A speeding car crashes onto a rocky shoreline and its occupants, newspaper editor Hugh Fresney and private eye Tim Slade recount the plot as the rising tide threatens to drown them. In flashback, we learn that Slade was brought in by muckraking editor Fresney as protection against a mobster his paper is investigating. Things quickly get complicated as Fresney's boss has a wife eager to resume a smoldering romance with Slade. When the main character gets iced early, everybody becomes a suspect, and the double-crosses start multiplying at a breakneck pace
