The year is 1931. For the last two years, the infamous mobster, Al Capone has blackmailed Private Eye, Guy Duncan, into doing dirty work for him. Now, he's one favor away from squaring his debt: all he needs to do is bump off one of the rising competitors in the bootlegging business before he makes a name for himself.

With little time and a lot to lose, Duncan can't afford any distractions. Before he can earn his freedom, he must thrust himself into the very heart of the criminal underworld and hope he doesn't lose his last sliver of humanity along the way. A dark tale of crime, murder, and deception, this is one case you'll want to crack. A Crime Noir Novel set in the streets of Chicago during Prohibition. A story that embodies the dark tone of classic noir. This is a must-read if you love mysteries, gangsters, action, and stories that will have you on the edge of your seat!
