Los Angeles, 1951. Fred Underhill is a very intelligent police officer, perseverant, women lover, and most of all, ambitious. The death of a woman and the discovery of a killer will serve him as a jumping board towards fame. With the Corea war on the background, Elroy takes us close to the career of the young officer -his uncontainable raise and his strepitous fall-, within the frame of an intricate case associated with the most sordid environments of the city.
