The Plot

It is 1929. Jack (Johnny) Johnson runs the 'Starlight Rooms', a lucrative night club. Despite living in Britain Johnny styles himself as a Chicago gang leader and the local constabulary tend to ignore him. However, when detectives find a link between a series of murders and the Starlight Rooms, the police become very interested indeed. What has Johnny been up to? Is someone trying to frame him - and if so who?
