THE BUTCHER BACK O’ THE YARDS 
There’s a new mob out of Chicago’s meatpacking district. It’s no coincidence their boss is called the Butcher.  While Mac MacCullough works a con job inside, the Bagman and Crankshaft will have to wade through a city of corpses to the stop this new threat to their neighborhood. 

THE CAPTIVES OF RAVENSWOOD

When a mysterious car tries to grab one of Mac’s newsboy buddies, the Bagman realizes the most fragile denizens of the deep city are being kidnapped.  For any normal person, paying the ransom would be a problem…but for the “Little Wiseguys” in Mac’s neighborhood, nobody even asks for one. 

THE DEVIL’S SHINGLE
