Based on a novel in the series by Lawrence Block, our hero is an ex-NYPD cop who now works as an unlicensed private investigator. When he reluctantly agrees to help a heroin trafficker hunt down the men who kidnapped and then brutally murdered his wife, he learns that this is not the first time these men have committed this sort of twisted crime, and nor will it be the last. Blurring the lines between right and wrong, he races to track the deviants through the backstreets of New York City before they kill again, making use of assorted 'interesting' characters along the way.
