To Jewish George Hurst, raised on the lower East Side by pathologically fearful Aunt Tessie, the goyim are a barbarous yet crafty race who corrupt whatever they touch. His best friend, Danny Schorr, begins palling around with gentiles and soon he has got into trouble with the police, changed his name to Shaw and become the most triple-dyed villain since East Lynne.
