  A laugh-out-loud communist-punching adventure!Sam Rockwell came home from the Second World War to work as a fledgling private investigator specializing in helping "Returns": recently deceased ghosts who've come back with unfinished business.

Sam sets out to find his father's killer, only to find himself caught up in a madcap game of Cold War intrigue.Humorous and hard-boiled, 'til Death is a witty, feel-good throwback to the golden age of Hollywood noir.
