Description

Contracts.

Love 'em or hate 'em, they ensure the cogs of a deal mesh together.

By force, if necessary.

Come read about the criminal side of contracts, of what can go right, wrong, or completely off the rails.

Be sure to pick up the former issues of Mystery, Crime, and Mayhem as well.

So Criminal, It's Good.
