Set against the backdrop of the 1930s, the narrative follows Eleanor Jarman, who gained notoriety as the "blonde tigress" and was labeled the "most dangerous woman alive." Through newly discovered records, Pettem chronicles Jarman's involvement in a Chicago crime spree, her conviction as an accomplice to murder, and her daring escape from prison in 1940, leading her to become America's longest-running female fugitive. The book delves into themes of crime, survival, and the complexities of a woman's fight for freedom.
