Private detective is suffering from brain tumor in this grim noir tale of loss and redemption. Old and worn, he is hired by drug dealer to find his daughter who stole his money. As he finds her, he becomes like some guardian over her, and in his demented mind thinks of her as his dead wife who was killed by gangsters while he was working for them. All that time holding in his heart his beloved one, he manages to save another, and eventually dies from a gun wound in a shootout. Very gritty and depressing noir comic, with equally depressing artwork.
