Arnold Kelleher was a hero - a hero who would brutally kidnap a small child, a hero who would make dirty deals with corrupt city politicians, a hero who would rape an innocent girl - He was the hero of ginks and goons and ward heelers, the hero of everyone except Tod Mullen, his political boss who pulled the strings that made him dance, except Steve Rome, a reporter bent on wiping out jungle law in a graft ridden city.
