Synopsis

A bomb goes off behind Jimmy Quinn's speakeasy. He figures it has something to do with the books that arrived in the mail—ledgers filled with columns of cryptic handwritten letters and numbers. What about the smooth Nazi who says he wants to buy Jimmy's place? Why is a "moderately corrupt" police detective suddenly interested in "helping" Jimmy? Then there’s the girl from Jimmy’s past who just reappeared and has a hell of a story to tell.

There’s also a missing $100,000. Numbers boss Jacob "the Wise" Weiss thinks that Jimmy has it. His enforcer, the fearsome Mercer Weeks, is keeping a close eye on Jimmy. And there’s a dead guy in the warehouse, beaten to death and carrying a union card identifying him as Jimmy Quinn.
