Edgar Hoover, political wheeler-dealer Artie Corcoran, and mob boss Meyer Lansky--press their own cryptic agendas, while Raymond Chandler provokes outrage with drunken allegations of police corruption. When a local hoodlum is murdered Captain Lennox takes Jake into his confidence, demanding loyalty. More killings follow as Jake finds himself caught up in a conspiracy that could change the course of American history.
