Plot

In the murky underworld of crime, Tony Gazotti, a seasoned racketeer, finds an unlikely savior in Jackson Durant, a lawyer with an adrenaline addiction for defending the guilty. Durant's audacious tactics earn Gazotti's unshakeable gratitude but cost him his reputable standing within his law firm and the love of his life, Sue. As Durant's world spirals, Sue reenters his life with a plea for help after her new beau, Tom Siddall, is ensnared in an intricate murder scheme. Compelled by Sue's desperation and his own thirst for justice, Durant begins to weave a web of counter-intrigue. With Gazotti's clandestine intelligence network and the assistance of his new flame, the enigmatic Gertie Waxted, Durant starts to unravel the malevolent plot. As the threads point to the ruthless gangster, Jim Crelliman, Durant sends Gertie on a perilous mission into the lion's den, Crelliman's apartment, where she must tread lightly or shatter the ice beneath her. In Penthouse (1933), nothing is as it seems. The shadows of the city hide treachery and deceit, and it's up to a thrill-seeking lawyer to unravel the truth, risking love and life in the process.
