Newly edited, Israel Rank is the black comedy that inspired the 1946 film "Kind Hearts and Coronets" and the award-winning Broadway show, "A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder." Israel Rank has loving parents, a comfortable home, and the charm, brains, attractiveness, and ambition to get him through life with ease. But he's not satisfied. He's an heir the Gascoyne earldom, a position of power and wealth, and he's determined to get it. All he has to do is kill of everyone in line in front of him, preferably without getting caught.
