Meet Nick "The Nightmare" Kilborn: ex-con, amateur boxer, and unofficial private eye, mainly working as a savior of missing children. He cruises the dark streets of 1970s Los Angeles tracking them down, hired by clients who, for one reason or another, can't rely on the police to find the abducted. He's a loner trying to come to grips with a world and a city very different from the one he left for jail fifteen years before.
When a woman from a past he's tried to forget brings a new case to his door, he's hesitant to take it on--the search cuts a little too close to home. She convinces him, against his instincts, to find out what happened to her sixteen-year-old daughter. The case plunges Nick into a brutal world of abuse and depravity existing just beneath the veneer of Los Angeles, far worse than anything he's ever encountered.
