Blood Money

Bill Bailey is a bail bondsman who's been helping out the mob for years. He falls for a pretty shoplifter named Elaine. She's actually slumming, as she's from a wealthy family. This leaves Bailey's girlfriend, club owner Ruby in the lurch. She's the woman responsible for his sucess, helping him out when he was thrown off the police force. However, Elaine steals some bonds instead of delivering them to the appropriate place, thereby setting up Bailey as a mob target and getting his brother-in-law in deep trouble with the law. Ruby believes he's responsible for her brother's problems, and has a hit put out on him.
