Oscar Levante is a writer living in Atlantic City, New Jersey in 1941. Or, at least, that's what he wants to be. Right now, he works under a pseudonym for a pulp novel company churning out novels as fast as they can pay him, all the while working on his magnum opus - a true noir detective story. One night while out with his friends, he meets a real PI named Theodore Durand, who tells Oscar that he doesn't know the first thing about what a real PI does. Oscar accepts the challenge, not knowing that Theodore's clientele aren't necessarily...human.
