Johnny Morocco hits Atlanta, GA in 1953. The former Army Military Policeman changes his name from McDonald and uses his military training to become a licensed P. I. Johnny's “office” is a pool room called Big Town in the heart of the city. His clients are the players and the occasional lawyer who cames in on his lunch hour. Johnny's luck runs out the morning he comes into Big Town and finds a dead man lying on a pool table. With only William the Negro rack boy in the building, William is the prime suspect. Taking on the mission of proving a Negro innocent of killing a white man puts Johnny in the crosshairs himself. Only after he gets involved does he realize the crosshairs belong to the organization known as The Dixie Mafia.
