ʻO polū polū ʻo Miami
ʻO ka moʻolelo waiwai nui a Willeford. He ʻano unuhi o nā duels kahiko o ʻAmelika Komohana ma waena o ka makai nui a me ka ʻino. I ka hoʻololi ʻana, hoʻohana ʻo Willeford i ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa, ka hana ʻino a me ka ʻoi loa o ka haʻalulu o nā alualu i hana ʻia. hihia beli ma waena o nā mea hoʻokūkū ʻelua ma ke ʻano he hōʻailona hōʻailona o ka maikaʻi a me ka hewa. I kekahi manawa, hui pū ka ʻeleʻele a me ke keʻokeʻo o nā kiʻi i ka huikau a me ka makau holoʻokoʻa.
ʻO Freddy Frenger, Jr., kahi psycho hanohano mai Kaleponi mai, i pae iho nei i Miami me kāna mau ʻeke piha i nā kāleka ʻaiʻihue a makemake e momona. Ma hope o ka hoʻopaʻapaʻa ʻana ma San Quentin, makemake ʻo ia e hoʻomaka hou i kahi mokuʻāina ʻē aʻe me ka manaʻo ʻole ʻia he lawehala hou.
I kona hele ʻana, hele ʻo ia i ka Sergeant Hoke Moseley, he mākaʻi me ke ola pōʻino, he kaʻa paʻa a me ke ʻano hiʻohiʻona, akā aloha ʻole i kāna hana. ʻIke ka lawehala a me nā mākaʻi ʻaʻole lawa ke kūlanakauhale no lāua ʻelua, akā ʻo Freddy ka mea nāna i kuʻi mua: ʻaihue ʻo ia i ka hōʻailona o ka mākaʻi, kāna pū a me kāna mau niho hoʻopunipuni. Hāʻawi ʻia ka duel.

ʻO nā ʻano honua o nā hana noʻeau, me kāna mau quirks a me nā rarities, me ke kokoke ʻana i nā lawehala e heʻe ana ma waena o ka strata e like me ka waiwai e like me bohemian, nā wahi hālāwai no kēia puke i piha i ka hoʻomākeʻaka, ke koko, nā kuko, nā mania a me ke aloha i nā mea noʻeau, ʻano ʻē e like me ʻo ia paha.
ʻO ka mea ʻohi miliona miliona e hāʻawi i kahi manaʻo hiki ʻole i ka ʻōpio ʻōpio ʻo James Figueras: e ninaninau kūʻokoʻa iā Jacques Debierue, ka mea pena kaulana loa a hiki ʻole ke loaʻa i ka honua pena. I ka hoʻololi ʻana, ua noi ka mea ʻohiʻohi iā Figueras e ʻaihue i kahi hana na Debierue, ka mea e noho hūnā ʻia ana ma kahi mamao loa o Florida.

Hāʻawi ʻo Deep America i kahi hiʻohiʻona ʻokoʻa e neʻe ai i nā ʻano ʻoi loa o ka Willeford e hauʻoli nei i kāna hōʻike ʻino loa, me kona mau aʻa hāmama, me kona hiki ke ʻakaʻaka i nā mea ʻino i mea e hoʻopau hope ai i ka hoʻohewa a me ka nānā ʻana mai ke kūlana kanaka.
I ke kanakolukūmālua, ʻo Frank Mansfield kekahi o nā hale kiʻi maikaʻi loa o ʻAmelika. Ma nā pāʻani o ka Hema, hoʻololi kona inoa i nā pili. Haʻaheo ʻo Frank, huhū a hakakā hoʻi; akā no ka helu ʻekahi, pono ʻoe he poʻo.
Me ka makana ʻo Gallero o ka Makahiki ma waena o nā kuʻemaka, ke kūlana kiʻekiʻe loa o nā gallitics ʻAmelika, ua hoʻohiki ʻo Frank ʻaʻole e wehe hou i kona waha a hiki i kona hoʻolaʻa ʻana. ʻO ia wale nō ka mea i ʻike i ke kumu o kona mumule ʻana, ʻoiai ma ka honua kahiko o ka moa, he honua kanaka i hoʻomalu ʻia e nā lula o nā kūpuna i "paʻa ai ka lulu lima e like me ka ʻōlelo hoʻohiki i mua o ka notary," ʻaʻohe mea e hopohopo e ʻike.
Ma ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe, ʻo Mary Elizabeth, ma hope o nā makahiki he nui e kali ana me ka wiwo ʻole no kāna kāne hoʻopalau e haʻalele i nā moa, hoʻi i ke kauhale a noho, noho hoʻomanawanui iki, a ʻo ka muteness ʻano ʻē e hoʻopau iā ia. Ua ʻike ʻo Frank he nui nā mea hahai holoholona ma ke kūlanakauhale e makemake e lawe iā Mary Elizabeth ma ke ala; inā e hoʻi ʻo ia i ona lā, ʻo ia paha kāna hoʻāʻo hope loa e hoʻokō i kāna mea i makemake nui ai i kona ola.
ʻO Charles Willeford, kekahi o nā inoa nui o ka American hardboiled a me ka mea kākau moʻolelo, ua hoʻoikaika ʻia e "The Odyssey" e noʻonoʻo i kāna mea i manaʻo ai ʻo kāna puke maikaʻi loa. Hoʻomaʻaka, leʻaleʻa, kākau akamai ʻia, "Fighting Rooster" he huakaʻi ia ma waena o nā squabbles hema o ke kanaono, kahi huakaʻi ma waena o ʻAmelika Hema i ʻike iki ʻia a nalo hoʻi, i ka hui o kahi ʻano poina ʻole.
