Two cops. Partners. Friends. Working four unrelated homicides and feeling the pressure to get them solved as fast as possible. One cop---Turner Hahn---looks like a movie matinee idol from the 1930's. And he's rich.
His partner---Frank Morales---looks like the reincarnation of an honest-to-god Neanderthal.
Working multiple cases is nothing new to these two. For them, it's just another day at the office. And their 'office' is the back alleys and mean streets of crime, corruption, murder and mayhem.
Together the two are old pros in the business of matching wits with those who want to get away with murder.
