ヒューイ・ラフォレットの脱獄で混乱するNY。その中心とも言えるのは、フライング・プッシーフット号やギャング関係者たちが集うフィーロのカジノだった。だがそこに現れた異質な人物により、事態は大きく動いていく。そのルノラータ・ファミリーから来たメルヴィと名乗る人物に、マイザーだけでなく、過去の記憶を持つフィーロも不信感を抱かずにはいられず ──。

There are two traits found in most of Narita's works:
* Narita writes extremely fast, one volume a month if he wishes - with tons of spelling errors and missing words as a tradeoff. The editors like to leave them sometimes just for fun, though.
* His work titles often have an exclamation mark at the end (i.e. Baccano!, Vamp!, Durarara!!, etc.).

Firo Prochainezo has a lot of cleaning up to do after the Runorata family paid a visit to the underground casino he runs. But now that the dust has settled, everyone’s left with a lot of questions. Like whose side is Vino on? And why did that one guy look exactly like Maiza’s long-dead brother?
Nader Schasschule escaped the anarchy in the casino with a lot of money in his pockets. But that doesn’t mean he can sit back and relax now. That girl recognized him. She must be one of Huey’s underlings. She knows that he betrayed Huey. And nobody betrays Huey and gets away with it. Unfortunately, his paranoia quickly gets him into even more trouble.
Renee Branvillier all of a sudden takes a vacation/escapes from the Nebula corporation to visit her children, which her assistants/guards did not see coming. Worse, they never even knew that the immortal Renee had children.
Comic relief duo Isaac and Miria are working at a clinic. And they’re not the only ones. There’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing working with them and the duo don’t even realize it. What could Fermet be planning this time?
Maiza gets attacked by an unknown group. And he’s not the only one. Who are they? And why are they targeting them? Could they be going after the Martillo family? Or could they be going after the immortals?
Set directly after the events of the previous book, we continue building up towards the climax here. Huey Laforet is clearly getting ready for something big, as are a few other major players. But we’re left in the dark about what they’re all planning exactly. The role Vino/Claire is set to play in the finale is a big part of this story. Will he continue to follow Huey’s orders because Huey’s his future father in law? Or will he choose his friends instead?
The plot thickens as we march on to the conclusion of the 1900s books. And I can’t wait to see how it will all play out.
