The tale of two very unlikely partners in crime set in New York City's Roaring Twenties.

Nola is a poor white girl living on the streets who has learned to survive by any means necessary. Slim is a black pimp with a shady history, constantly looking over his shoulder in fear of his own past. When their options run out and their paths cross, Nola and Slim forge a partnership as hired killers. Miss: Better Living Through Crime is a story about what it takes two people to survive when all they have is a gun and each other.
