Set against the bustling backdrop of pre‑fire Chicago, the O’Leary brothers—honest, steady Jack and his roguish, ambitious sibling Dion—climb the city’s underworld ladder to become influential power brokers. Their contrasting natures eventually pit them against each other as the city teeters on the brink of the Great Fire.
