What is The Ninth Hour: A Chicago Story about?

1920s As battles were being waged for the control of the city by some of the most powerful mobsters the world had seen, one man known only as Vincent conceived an elaborate plan to operate in greater secrecy than the rest, remaining entirely unknown and untouchable. For years he waited patiently for the day when he should seize the reins of power. He would bring the greatest minds to his organization. He would bring men of such strong wills they would never betray him. He would bring the deadliest allies. His opposition is a young investigator who craves an honorable life free of the city's corruption. That one man surprises Vincent as he starts to unmask mysteries about his gang. The investigator had for a long time seemed to slumber, and had even unknowingly become close friends with Markus Calvin, one of the highest ranking henchmen in Vincent's employ. While Markus is away, his wife experiences mysterious complications at a hospital during the final stages of her pregnancy. When he returns he discovers a fiendish act has taken the life of his son and threatened the only woman he has ever loved. The henchman is consumed by grief, hatred, and an insatiable thirst for vengeance. A
