Dead Reckoning

Washington, D.C., winter. A medal ceremony tent glows under slush-stained streetlights. A soldier flees through steam rising from a manhole, then a bloodied coat lies abandoned on wet pavement. This is noir as wartime loyalty curdles into suspicion—Cromwell cold-drags the genre into the atomic age.
