OTR Dramas - The Whistler

The Whistler -  The Custom Built Blonde

Jerry Coonan is a small time hustler. His latest plan is to pick up a wealthy woman in a lounge, drive with her to an isolated area and have his two pals, Red Stafford and Shorty Burton, pull the car over and rob the woman of her fur coat, diamond pendant and other jewelry.

Jerry chuckled to himself; his blond companion was both rich and dumb. The diamond necklace around her neck should fetch $10,000, the emerald on her hand another $5,000 -- and then there was that mink coat.

The swindlers, however, were not aware that their mark always carried a gun. What a surprise when she pulled it out and started shooting.
