Descriere The Glass Heart / The Sleeping City - Marty Holland

\nTHE GLASS HEART \n \n \n\n \nDown on his luck, Curt snatches an overcoat and is chased by the police into a Beverly Hills neighborhood where he meets Mrs. Virginia Block. Virginia is expecting a new handyman to show up, and Curt quickly snags the position. He doesn't realize that this seemingly sweet old woman is a rich miser, and finds himself working for pennies as her gardener, her chauffeur, and whatever else she needs to maintain her huge house. Then Lynn, as aspiring actress, moves in, and things don't seem so bad there after all. But it isn't until Curt discovers Mrs. Block's secret that he finds out what kind of a goldmine he's sitting on. All he has to do is figure out is how to work it... and then stay alive.\n \n \n\n \nTHE SLEEPING CITY\n \n \n\n \nOfficer Wade Reed is given his mission, to pose as a member of the Les Ties gang and infiltrate a local mob. As Jim Cox, he is an out-of-town gunman who has been hired to help with a heist set up by Louie Thompson, an old-style prohibition hoodlum who's planning a comeback. It's Wade's job to find out the details and report back to the Gangster Squad. One false move from Jim Cox, and Wade's fiancée Betty will have to find a new husband. But Wade doesn't figure on Thompson's girl Madge. At first she seems like a real tough cookie. But once she gets under Wade's skin, he begins to have his doubts about the mission. Can he protect Madge and still stop the heist? \n \n \n
