Los Angeles, the late 1940’s. A serial killer stalks the foggy streets at night …
Dix Steele, a former fighter pilot, moved to L.A. after the war, looking for a new life. But the city is gripped by fear of a murderer in its midst. Dix, however, is not scared.

A dark and terrible truth is revealed, in a noir novel like no other.
