It's 1948. The postwar world is in chaos and Mitch Day is looking for trouble. He's fast, dangerous, and Irish-American--he's always been lucky. But a failed robbery attempt lands him in a small Arizona town with a dark secret. Life gets complicated when he crosses paths with two very different women--Kika, a beautiful young woman who falls passionately in love with him, and Winnie, the icy and manipulative heiress of Baylor & Cromwell Real Estate Co. In over his head, Mitch must fight his way out of a sinister situation to survive.
