1940. One-eyed, self-employed detective Johnny Hawke is hired to investigate the mysterious death of a young woman found brutally stabbed in her own bed. As he digs deeper, he finds a connection between her murder and the fading film actor Gordon Moore. He then discovers there is a runaway boy who claims to have witnessed something terrible. Johnny must find the witness before someone else does.
