Summary
A soot-stained magnate drapes himself in the tatters of Red Harrigan, prowling Detroit’s gin-soaked basements where jazz coughs through broken brass; the city’s river, a black mirror, swallows his tire tracks and the ghosts of Model-T’s. Night after night, Walter Miller’s Janus-faced plutocrat engineers heists with clockwork bravado—vaulting rooftops, slipping handcuffs, trading muzzle flashes with a relentless gumshoe—until the final mask slips: the hunter is blood, the quarry is kin, and the labyrinth was always a mirror.
Synopsis
By night, Mr. Browning (Walter Miller), a man of wealth, masquerades as Red Harrigan, a common frequenter of saloons. He soon becomes the notorious leader of an underworld gang in Detroit. After Browning experiences a series of escapes from the police and a famous detective, involving car chases and a dive into the Detroit River, the detective learns that "Harrigan" is really his own brother, and that the reason he began living a double life was to find and reclaim his sibling.
