Summary
Rune hasn't been in Manhattan very long, but she's crafty enough to have found a squatters' paradise and a video store job that feeds her passion for old movies. Mr. Kelly, her favourite customer, rents the same video over and over again - "Manhattan is my beat" - a noir classic based on a real-life unsolved bank heist and a million missing dollars. That's the tape Rune is picking up from Mr. Kelly's shabby apartment when she finds him shot dead. Rune is certain the key to solving the murder is hidden somewhere in the hazy, black-and-white frames of Mr. Kelly's beloved movie
