The two main characters, Cheryl Maguire and Christopher Laird, are both just out of high school and coincidentally obtain summer jobs at the same fast food establishment in Cavendish, anchor of PEI's National Park and legendary beaches. Chris, eighteen, is still a virgin and rectifying that condition is uppermost on his dating agenda. He's a very well read individual with a passion for 'who done it' mysteries and a craving, albeit judiciously, for adventure. Cheryl is eighteen as well and, although a 'take charge' individual by nature, has led a very protective life until now. She's also a literary fan and confides to Chris of having an imaginary bond, or 'kindred spirit' with an infamous female gangster of the dirty thirties. Their boss, Ollie Musick, is horse racing enthusiast and a possible crook. The disappearance and suspected murder Ollie's sexy girlfriend, the owner of a provocative red dress, and the Robbery of the Century, not to mention the possible whereabouts of a priceless artifact, sets the stage for their involvement in intrigue and clandestine activities hitherto unheard-of on tranquil PEI.

Classic film noir offers more than pesky private eyes and beautiful bad girls—it explores the quest for the not-so-attainable American dream. Winner of the CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title of the Choice ACRL Desperate young lovers on the lam (They Live by Night), a cynical con man making a fortune as a mentalist (Nightmare Alley), a penniless pregnant girl mistaken for a wealthy heiress (No Man of Her Own), a wounded veteran who has forgotten his own name (Somewhere in the Night)—this gallery of film noir characters challenges the stereotypes of the wise-cracking detective and the alluring femme fatale. Despite their differences, they all have something in common: a belief in self-reinvention. Nightmare Alley is a thorough examination of how film noir disputes this notion at the heart of the American Dream. Central to many of these films, Mark Osteen argues, is the story of an individual trying, by dint of hard work or, more often, illicit enterprises, to overcome his or her origins and achieve material success. In the wake of World War II, the noir genre tested the dream of upward mobility and the ideas of individualism, liberty, equality, and free enterprise that accompany it. Employing an impressive array of theoretical perspectives (including psychoanalysis, art history, feminism, and music theory) and combining close reading with original primary source research, Nightmare Alley proves both the diversity of classic noir and its potency. This provocative and wide-ranging study revises and refreshes our understanding of noir's characters, themes, and cultural significance.
