Three sevens
Craig has ten years still to serve in San Pedro Prison and a month to pass in the punishment cells, iron boxes five feet square where men have gone mad and died. His predecessor in the cell was Chi Slim, one of the most famous crooks in the United States, who died untamed, and a cat that somehow finds its way in seems to carry a message from him. What follows is an escape story and a treasure story, running from the prison to the waterfront, a ship and a beacon, with a woman named Aunt Katherine and a secret called Three Sevens at the center. Perley Poore Sheehan was a prolific American pulp writer and screenwriter of the 1920s. It is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, with the first chapter free.
