Private investigator and WWII veteran Aloysius Archer arrives in Los Angeles to celebrate New Year's Eve with aspiring actress Liberty Callahan. Their celebration is disrupted by Eleanor Lamb, a troubled screenwriter seeking help. After unsettling events—a series of ominous phone calls, a suspicious blue car lurking outside Eleanor's home, and a bloody knife found in her sink—Eleanor fears for her life and hires Archer. However, before he can formally take on her case, a dead body is discovered in Eleanor's house, and she goes missing. Determined to find both the murderer and Eleanor, Archer enlists the help of Callahan and his partner Willie Dash. Their investigation leads them from the mob-infested streets of Las Vegas to the glamorous yet treacherous realm of Hollywood, revealing a city where stunning appearances hide ruthless schemers. As Archer delves deeper, he realizes that the corrupt cops may be more dangerous than the criminals themselves. With powerful figures behind Eleanor's disappearance willing to kill to protect their secrets, Archer must navigate a perilous landscape to uncover the truth.
