- Dateline Chicago, 1946: Policy, the illegal lottery, makes millions of dollars for racketeers in Chicago{u2019}s black community. But the numbers don{u2019}t add up when kingpin Ed Jones is kidnapped. Who grabbed him? The mob? Another policy wheel operator? And why? Gus Carson, World War II veteran, a survivor of the sinking of his ship in the Pacific. A Chicago cop, he{u2019}s suspended for a late night shooting at a brothel.
