An 84-year old city patriarch, Pete Braga, is found bludgeoned to death. Not good news for Detective Tom McMichael as the Irish McMichaels and the Portuguese Bragas share a violent family history dating back three generations. Years ago Braga had shot McMichael's grandfather in a dispute over a pay cheque; soon after Braga's son was severely beaten. McMichael must try and see through the old family feuds and find out the truth about Pete Braga's death. Braga's beautiful nurse is a suspect, but the investigation soon expands to include Braga's business, his family, the Catholic diocese, a multi-million dollar Indian casino, a prostitute, a cop, and of course the McMichael family.
