Los Angeles, 1956. An ambitious prosecutor wants to know why the police were so eager to close the file on the suspicious death of a wealthy businessman. When his off the books investigation uncovers a link between that case and the murder of a young prostitute twenty years earlier, both his career and his life are endangered.
Post WW2, late 40's, would work better. Pre-Parker and the department reeked with corruption. And that could be a story pay off: the scandal not only topples the bad cop, it triggers the appointment of a good cop like Parker to clean house.

In order to survive in the chaos of post-apocalyptic Australia, a diffident young man takes the only job available, as a tracker and killer of psychopathic criminals.
In a P-A world (post-apocalyptic) world, wouldn’t law and justice have broken down? Who would care about normal due process? Wouldn’t street or vigilante justice be the standard m.o. rather than court justice?
