The Legend of Mack the Knife

The Legendary "Mack the Knife": a deadly mercenary with a troubled past, known for precise cuts in his victim's flesh and dealing death at the flick of his wrist. Having no money, no kindred or comrades, he survives the only way he was taught; by killing people for both profit and balance between good and evil. However, when his choices in life eventually catch up to him, the battle becomes an internal one. How far is he willing to go to achieve his dream of success; the very same dream his father and mother worked so hard for? Inspired by the "Threepenny Novel" by Bertolt Brecht, part one of this series takes you through the life of Willie "Mack" MacHeath, beginning in late 1920's Chicago. Sometimes you have to do things you wouldn't dream of doing-all for the sake of survival.
