WARNING: Sex. Violence. Drugs.

It was just another night in New York City. Between Prohibition and the Great Depression, there was little else to do but open a bottle and wait for the next case. For Detective Johnny Hart, waiting had becoming more than just a way to kill time since leaving the force. Day in and day out, his life had become little more than a joke chasing cheating husbands and two time crooks whose names weren't even worth mentioning. That was, until Scarlet May walked through his door.

She was all the right kinds of wrong. A drop dead knockout who had run out of luck in a time when no one had any left to spare. So all it took was one bat of those perfect eyelashes for Detective Hart to take her case. The only trouble,  beauty had always been blinding, and what Detective Hart had yet to realize was that what waited ahead was anything but a cliche.

$2.86. Two dollars and eighty six cents was all it took for you to fall for Luigi Mangione. But now, it's been four months since you'd last seen him. And you'd pay a million times that to have him back. ~For legal purposes, this is FICTION and anything that is similar or the same as real life is purely coincidental~
