Claudiu 'Manco' Kapak is a strip club owner. When placing his cash receipts in a bank's night-deposit box, he is robbed by a masked gunman. Kapak is determined to find the culprit and make him pay. After a month of investigation Kapak's goons settle on Joe Carver, an innocent but hardly defenceless newcomer who evades capture, furious at being wrongly accused. Meanwhile the real culprit and his new girlfriend believe they've found a whole new profession, robbing Kapak of his strip club's cash. As the case explodes into a triple killing, Carver finds himself in the middle of an escalating gang war over Kapak's little empire, ploughing into territory more strange and violent than he could ever have imagined.

Etat : Bueno. : Claudiu "Manco" Kapak, un propietario de un club de striptease envejecido pero formidable, ha sido robado por un pistolero enmascarado mientras depositaba los recibos de efectivo en la caja de depósito nocturno de un banco. Enfurecido, envía a sus seis hombres de seguridad a buscar a un sospechoso que esté gastando mucho dinero en efectivo y sea lo suficientemente nuevo en Los Ángeles como para no saber que estaba robando a un gángster.Su búsqueda los lleva a Joe Carver, un recién llegado inocente pero poco indefenso que evade la captura y se propone hacer que Kapak desee haber elegido a otra persona. Mientras tanto, el verdadero culpable, Jefferson Davis Falkins, y su nueva novia Carrie parecen creer que han encontrado una profesión completamente nueva: robar a Manco Kapak.El teniente Nick Slosser, el detective de policía a cargo del desconcertante y cada vez más violento caso, tiene sus propios problemas, incluidas las preocupaciones sobre cómo va a permitirse enviar al hijo mayor de cada uno de sus dos matrimonios bígamos a la universidad sin despertar sospechas en sus madres.Cuando esta extraña serie de dificultades explota en un triple asesinato, Carver se encuentra en medio de una guerra de pandillas en ciernes por el pequeño imperio de Kapak, mientras que Falkins y Carrie viajan a un territorio más extraño y violento de lo que ninguno de los dos había imaginado.
