It's the summer of '77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn't want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head.
Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts -- and his memory -- as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.
