A Drink

Boston Sadie’s shady husband enlists the aid of two other crooks, one being a professional pickpocket, in a clever plot to steal 50 Army revolvers. The job is done well, but when the three thieves open the wooden crate at their fence’s hideout, they find it contains the Army’s latest nuclear warhead—the Dionysius—but no guns. They now face a major problem: how to dispose of such a powerful weapon of destruction.
