It was supposed to be a simple track a man suspected of having an affair and get proof of the affair for the man’s wife. It was the sort of case Abe and Duff had worked a thousand times throughout their careers. When the husband catches a bullet while Duff is watching, a whole new mystery emerges. To find out who killed Robert Bloch, Abe and Duff will have to call in some favors, venture into the labyrinth of Chicago’s underworld, and deal with some of the questionable men who run criminal empires. As with anything in which the less-than-dynamic duo find themselves mired, there are always more questions than answers, more problems than solutions, and a good chance to ruffle the wrong feathers while they search for the truth. Nothing in Abe and Duff’s lives is ever easy, and this case will make the boys sweat more than an unforgiving Midwest summer heat wave.
