Private investigator and WWII veteran Aloysius Archer arrives in Los Angeles to celebrate New Year's Eve with aspiring actress Liberty Callahan. Their plans are disrupted when Eleanor Lamb, a troubled screenwriter, seeks Archer's help after experiencing a series of alarming incidents, including strange phone calls and a bloody knife found in her sink. Although Archer suspects Eleanor is hiding something, he is drawn into the case. Before he can officially take it on, a body is discovered in Eleanor's home, and she vanishes. Undeterred, Archer is determined to find both the murderer and Eleanor. With assistance from Callahan and his partner Willie Dash, he embarks on a perilous investigation that leads him from the mob-infested streets of Las Vegas to the glitzy yet treacherous world of Hollywood and the shadowy depths of Los Angeles. In this city, where alluring appearances mask ruthless schemers, Archer must navigate a landscape where law enforcement can be as corrupt as the criminals. The stakes are high, and the powerful individuals behind Eleanor's disappearance will stop at nothing to eliminate anyone who threatens their secrets.
