In this depression-era noir series debut, a politician's murder
leads a Chicago crime reporter to a conspiracy involving the Cubs'
race for the pennant. Chicago, 1938. A new mayoral candidate runs
on a promise to stomp out organized crime. When he's gunned down,
it seems clear that the mob cast their ballot with bullets. But
Chicago Tribune reporter Steve "Snap" Malek senses more to the
story. And his hunch is confirmed by none other than former
syndicate kingpin Al Capone. Incurring his editors' anger, Malek
ranges far beyond his beat, plunging headlong into a maverick
investigation that soon spins beyond his control. In the process,
he crosses paths with actress Helen Hayes, future Mayor Richard J.
Daley, and pitching great Dizzy Dean, who was recently traded to
the Cubs. And while Dizzy may be essential to a Cubs pennant win,
he may also be the key to Malek's very survival.
