Summary:

To get ahead had been the ambition that ruled Jeff Lantry's life. He'd promised himself he'd make a fortune the quickest and easiest way. Then Jeff met Marcella Blair, and he saw things in a different light. Life became more than merely getting ahead. It became decency, honor and fair play. But there was a fly in the ointment---a beautiful fly. Ruby Costello, the queen of a gambling den, wanted Jeff Lantry for herself. When he fell for Marcella Blair, Ruby vowed if she couldn't have Jeff she'd destroy him---and Ruby had the right connections to do it.
