This not-so-simple noirish tale of good versus evil unfolds on and under the planks of two strikingly different boardwalks of the Jersey Shore. James Mulligan, a worn-out music icon, has finally had enough of being known superficially as Jersey Shore Jimmy. In an effort to re-direct and rebuild his life, James retreats to the safest quietest place he can imagine-the wholesome family resort of Ocean City. Tranquility eludes him, however, and he is entrapped by a cleverly disguised evil. While searching for a missing girl, Jimmy is dogged by his reputation, deceived, shot, framed, and deceived again before discovering it's not easy to shake the Boardwalk Blues.
