Edger Hoover is determined to stop his ilk by assigning ace agent Melvin Purvis to hunt down Dillinger. As Purvis struggles with the manhunt's realities, Dillinger himself faces
an ominous future with the loss of friends, dwindling options and a changing world of organized crime with no room for him.
