Dramatisation of Robert L Pike's gritty detective story, set in New York's rough 52nd Precinct in 1963. Lieutenant Clancy, head throbbing from days without sleep, is assigned to protect important Mafia witness Johnny Rossi. But when he is found dead, Clancy has only a matter of hours to find the killer before his enemy, Assistant District Attorney Chalmers, finds out. With Jason Isaacs, Kerry Shale, Lou Hirsch, John Biggins.
