Jim's friend Angel has dropped out of sight - it's been three months since Jim saw him. Then he has lunch with his wiseguy friend David, and David says something strange: that Angel died. Shocked, Jim asks when and David tells him, "Tomorrow. Wednesday at the latest." So Jim goes to Angel's place and finds out Angel has moved to a penthouse in the Sunset Arms Apartments! Sure enough, there's Angel in new, fancy clothes and at a new, fancy address. Jim digs, and learns Angel is sixty percent owner of the Indianhead River Land Development Company. More digging and a run-in with a mobster only reveal more questions. Who told Angel that some fertile land is dry and useless, and why? Why is an insurance man talking as though Angel were already dead? And how does it all fit together? Before long, Jim finds himself sought in connection with a murder - if he can't puzzle this one out, Angel will die and Jim will end up back in the box!
