A fourteen-year-old white girl from the D.C. suburbs has run away from home and is working as a prostitute in some dangerous neighborhoods. Derek Strange and Terry Quinn - the team of ex cops turned private investigators who made their debut in Right As Rain - think they know the dangers, but nothing in their experience has prepared them for Worldwide Wilson, the pimp whose territory they are intruding on. Tension escalates when one of the stars of a community peewee football team that Strange and Quinn spend their evenings coaching is felled in a drive-by shooting. Tracking down his killers becomes a point of honor for Strange and Quinn, and their off-the-books investigation leads them back to Wilson.
