The return of the Shamus Award-Winning private eye novel by the author of the box office smash 'Road To Perdition'! The second volume in the Nathanial Heller 'Frank Nitti Trilogy', featuring the real-life mobster played in the film by Stanley Tucci!
Nate Heller survived his confrontations with Al Capone, only to find himself facing Ma Barker, Baby Face Nelson, and perhaps the biggest and most dangerous question in his life: Who was the man shot down in the alley next to the Biograph Theater, the man the FBI had confidently identified as John Dillinger?
Heller's search for the answer leads him into a confrontation with J Edgar Hoover, and into a much more comfortable meeting with Sally Rand . . . but not before the streets of Chicago run red with blood.
