Lost Diamond Leads to Fiery Scheme on Little Orange Street
In a cramped New York–style maze, Ziola pockets a valuable glass stone found on Little Orange Street after a tense bargaining with Salvator. He buys time with a counterfeit fortune, then dashes to Temple Street to claim a hundred dollars, while fate pushes Salvator toward a reckless ride in a red motor-car with Jim Grady.
