In 1942, Chicago P.I. Nate Heller and his youth pal, boxer Barney Ross, join the Marines and find out bloody action along at Guadalcanal. Upon his return to gangland Chicago, the shell-shocked Heller - more dangerous than ever - is thrust in to the midst of any inter-gang battle to depose Capone's successor, Frank Nitti, whose minions are infiltrating Hollywood movie unions. In this particular crushing finale to rough-and-tumble Nate Heller's Frank Nitti trilogy, Max Allan Collins delves in to the destroyed psyche of battle veterans as a full-on gangland battle threatens to explode. As tempers in Hollywood flare-up, Heller endeavors to solve a murder devoted behind adversary lines, and offer with the medication craving of his good friend Barney. But not even the company of fan dancer Sally Rand can lessen Heller's conscience as he is haunted by the events at Guadalcanal even as he's ornamented by the murder and mayhem of Nitti's last, violent days.
