'Doc' Moran claws his way out of medical school expulsion and into the criminal underworld, becoming the go-to surgeon for wounded gangsters willing to pay—at any cost. As he patches up killers during Prohibition's bloodiest days and gets tangled up with the Dillinger gang, his shaky hands and dwindling nerve make him as dangerous to his patients as the bullets that brought them to him. When his failures start piling up, Moran learns that in gangland, a liability doesn't get a second chance.
