The concluding 'Mike Hammer' novel begins with a 21st century funeral before flashing back to summer, 1970. Six years after the events of 'Dig Two Graves', Hammer takes another unlikely vacation - this time on Long Island to help look after his partner Velda Sterling's 17-year-old sibling, Willa. Willa must deal with the attention of two boys vying for her affection - Hammer preferring the good kid from a wealthy family over the long-haired doper with an Easy Rider vibe. When Willa gets hooked on heroin, Hamm - filled with contempt for dope dealers - chases down the man behind the drug racket and teaches him what shooting up is all about.
