Undertown

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Suggested Price $0.99

Summer, 1934: the heat is up and the heat is on as the Great Midwestern Crime Wave that began the previous year reaches dramatic new heights. Watching from the sidelines is Billy Foster, a young small-time thief hiding out in the supposedly haunted system of underground tunnels and abandoned speakeasies he calls "Undertown." After growing up in the shadow of the Prohibition-era underworld, Billy considers the larcenous life a thrill, even as he tells himself he only steals to help his family through hard times.

On July 22, John Dillinger, whose exploits Billy followed closely, is killed by federal agents. The very same night, Billy comes face-to-face with another subject of his fascination: a Chicago Outfit gangster known to him as "Jericho Nelson," murdered five years earlier, a man who played a brief but important role in Billy's life. His encounter with the other side will force Billy Foster to confront his past, his own mistakes, and his place in the bloody history of Chicago's underground.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
