Description: Here is the epic of that greatest of all thrills, the man hunt!  The gangster, the killer, the rat without a conscience has been driven into the open.

All the forces of law and society are massing remorselessly against him, but the killer is not alone.  With him, sharing the terrors, the doublings and twistings of the panic-stricken run, is a beautiful girl.  A strange enigmatic personality, touched with feminine tenderness, yet drawn by a mysterious fascination to the cruelties and murders which have made the killer’s name a by-word in society.

Buck Toler has given us many vivid living pictures of underworld gangster-crime, but in “Killer on the Ruin” he touches new depths of toughness, but also he rises to new heights of that grim, swift-moving excitement which all readers look for and inevitably get in this virile author’s stories.
