About Nicky V A Chicago Crime Story

In the late 1950's Nicky Pavlovich (aka Nicky V) had led a thriving auto theft business for twenty years. During this time, he befriended local Cicero cops and avoided trouble with the Chicago mob until his crew unwittingly boosted the car of a made man. Dan O'Rourke had built his reputation as decorated combat sergeant and often suspended Chicago police detective. Faced with solving a mob hit, he and his partner brace Nicky V for the killing, hoping to send him to prison. After being fired for punching his boss, O'Rourke accepts a handsome fee to find Nicky V's troublesome, missing daughter. There is heart-pounding action as Nicky is targeted by the mobster, who suspects him of stealing his money. O'Rourke wants the real killer of the mob hit and will break any rule to get the truth. The suspense builds as O'Rourke and the mob crew chase Nicky and the money. Nicky wants out of Chicago if he can stay alive long enough to disappear for good.
