The Mean Streets of Chicago

Tom Collins is a bored Manchester private eye. His caseload consists of loose women, lying spouses and lost dogs. His hero is Jake Fist, a fictional hard-hitting, hard-drinking shoot-'em-and-leave-'em 1950's Chicago gumshoe. Then one quiet afternoon a beautiful Oriental woman walks into his office. She's from Chicago. When she asks Tom to track down her missing cousin, Angel Wong, it's Tom's chance to prove he's a real detective, just like Jake Fist. Two days later he is in the middle of a vicious turf war, on the run from three murderous Oriental gangs and the Manchester police. But why are they all looking for Angel Wong? Tom is kidnapped by a sinister Chinese mobster called 'Goodbye' Johnny, taken to a deserted warehouse and threatened with a slow, agonizing death. Now there is no one who can save him. Except maybe Jake Fist...
