It is 1947 in New Paris, one of America's largest cities.
Two men from different backgrounds become entangled in a series of dark pathways, sinister characters, and murders. It all begins after Bruce Ellory's life takes a downward spiral. Being a witness to murder is not necessarily safe for the beholder. Max Weatherbee, a low-level PI, is searching for clients. The two men cross paths, and neither of their lives will ever be the same. The noir story is written in a vintage pulp fiction style.
