What is City of Crime about?

CITY OF CRIME was originally published in the October 1, 1936 issue of The Shadow Magazine. Westford was a city of crime. Crime had infiltrated to the very highest levels of city government and it would take all the power and abilities of The Shadow to defeat the mobsters who ruled with impunity.В Our story forsakes the locales of New York and Manhattan to move to the thriving metropolis of Westford, a city of two-hundred thousand citizens. The story opens in Westford, stays in Westford and ends in Westford. We aren't told exactly where Westford is, but it looks like a prosperous and flourishing city. At least, from the outside. But that's just exterior gloss. Beneath the surface, the inside of Westford is rotten, through and through.В Westford is in the hands of mobsters, starting with low-lifes like Lance Gillick who runs the Club Adair as a gambling joint, and his lieutenant Beezer Dorsch. Gillick and Dorsch are getting away with murder... literally! Yes, Beezer Dorsch guns down reformer Prescott Dunson and gets away with it. Prescott Dunson was a candidate for district attorney who promised he would clean up corruption. So, he had to go.В How does such a crude gorilla get away
