In the early 1980s, a series of quiet, targeted killings spread through a criminal underworld. The dead were not innocent. There were men already living outside the law, and their disappearances passed largely unnoticed. For years, the murders attracted little scrutiny.

On a hot rainy summer night in Nassau, the Bahamas, in 1943, someone murdered Sir Harry Oakes, one of the richest men in the world, as he slept.
