Jeremy Wilder is a private eye in Fullerstone City. In the shadows casted by big business and the art deco skyscrapers, his daily business is to reek in the swamp of corruption, crime and murder. When the wife of one of the most influential entrepreneurs in town hires him to investigate a series of art robberies, he ends up at a dead end and teams up with "Fox" Mahoney, a fellow private detective. Together they dig deeper, until they find themselves entangled in a web of lies. Things more and more get out of hand, they deal with gangsters, cutthroats and corruption. They explore the underbelly of this shiny metropolis until Wilder suspects the case might be a setup. But he is already in too deep. His own life is at stake - and there is only one man in Fullerstone City he can trust.
