Shakedown / The Blonde and Johnny Malloy

By William Ard and Nicholas Litchfield

SHAKEDOWN

"You're in Miami, Stevens, to protect an innocent man from receiving some very unfortunate publicity about an unavoidable accident." So Flannagan tells his New York operative, Johnny Stevens, when he sends him on what should be a very safe and simple job. He's supposed to tail a doctor named Graves. Before Stevens knows it, he finds himself in the middle of a murder scheme involving playboy Randy Prince, whom the doctor might be blackmailing. But before he can figure out what's really going on, the cops haul Stevens in for bashing the doctor's head in with a bottle-with 300 witnesses who saw him do it

THE BLONDE AND JOHNNY MALLOY

While Johnny is doing time on the work gang, a blonde drives by every day in her red Cadillac. He starts to dream about her. Then his brother-in-law, Frank Trask, gets him released. And he finds out that the blonde, Nelli, is Frank's girl. And the red Cadillac is Frank's car. In fact, it's Frank's world to which Johnny has been released. Frank's got big plans for Johnny. Because Frank has got a million-dollar deal riding on an upcoming heavyweight fight, and he wants Johnny to take over his nightclub in the meantime. He gives Johnny a wad of bills, a new car and lots of promises. But what Johnny really wants is Nelli, the blonde in the red Cadillac.
