Based off of my grandmas life story and her adventures during WWII. I am writing as accurately as I can to her re-telling, however there might be some minor inaccuracies. Anna fled Soviet Ukraine to Soviet Russia with her mother and brother after her father was shot. They traveled by night and snuck across borders, nearly escaping sure death many times, until they finally ended up in Germany.

West Town

This is a story containing the origin of an ambitious concept I have since continued. It's so simple I can explain it in one sentence. "A private detective working with a vigilante in Post-War Chicago try to solve crimes while evading a suspicious Police Captain." It doesn't shy away from the racism that is necessary, nor does it dive headlong into that to the fullest extent. This is a story about cops, crooks, and private investigators. It's not a political statement. There is no reflection on today's politics to be found, or to be made in any past or future installments of this. There are people who commit what we would consider mass shootings today in broad daylight, there are incidents of sexual harassment and casual racism because the year is 1948 when the story begins. I did not write this to offend or support anybody real or living past or present. So without further warding, this is the story of a private detective and a veteran of both world wars who are brought together to face a tragedy and unravel a larger world of violence and crooks in their own ways in 1948 Chicago.
