The cold-case murder of John Hughes, the son of a Chicago Outfit member suspected of pulling the trigger, and the efforts of a determined detective to unravel a cover-up. A murder that had roiled the city and had been investigated for years had been reduced to a few reports and photographs. What should have been a massive file with notes and transcripts from dozens of interviews was nowhere to be found. Chicago Police Detective James Sherlock could have left the records center without the folder and cruised into retirement, and no one would have noticed. Instead, he tucked the envelope under his arm and carried it outside. Chicago Police Detective James Sherlock was CPD through-and-through. He thought he had seen it all-- until he went to the records center to see the case file for the murder of John Hughes. Seventeen years old when he was gunned down on Chicago's Southwest Side in 1976, Hughes's case had threads that led everywhere: Police corruption. Hints of the Chicago Outfit. A crooked judge. Even the belief that the cover-up extended to "hizzoner" himself-- Chicago mayor Richard J. Daley. What should have been a massive file with notes and transcripts from dozens of interviews was nowhere to be found. Coen explores Hughes' unsolved murder-- and pulls the curtain on a police cover-up. -- adapted from jacket
