When wartime curfew means nightclubs lock their doors until six AM, partiers might get locked in with a murderer...

Spring 1938. Douglas Bainbridge is certain he's finished solving murders. With the war moving on to the west, Doug's work for the Office of Naval Intelligence has quieted down, Shanghai has settled into an uneasy new normal under Japanese occupation, and the districts along the Great Western Road are booming with new dens of entertainment and vice. In Shanghai, the party goes on!

But when one of Doug's friends is accused of murder at a swanky nightclub and gambling den out in the new "Shanghai Badlands," Doug must use his hard-earned expertise to clear Stuart of the crime. With help from Kenny as defense attorney, and with Lucy and Jonesy always ready to assist, can Doug clear his friend of a crime he didn't commit? And can Doug learn who killed Jimmy Lockhart before the murderer comes for him and Lucy?
