Following the much-acclaimed Inner City Blues , a journey through Los Angeles's mix of politics and police corruption, secrets and lies.Los Angeles is in the midst of rebuilding in the aftermath of the Rodney King riots when Detective Charlotte Justice of the LAPD's elite Robbery-Homicide division takes on a high-profile case. The victim is pioneering black film director Maynard Duncan, a show business contemporary of her father.

Even when storm clouds gather, Detective Justice won't give upputting her career, her personal relationships, even her own life on the line.
