Los dos Jakes

Downtown Los Angeles, 1948. A rain-slicked streetlight flickers over a crumpled business card for J.J. Gittes, PI. A developer named Berman wants a quiet divorce check, but when the partner bleeds onto the bedroom rug, the investigation spills into the black gold beneath the city. The phone rings three decades late. Chinatown echoes in every rotary dial.
