When Billy Ellison, the son of Washington, D.C.ās most influential African-American family, is found dead in the Potomac near a violent drug haven, reporter Sully Carter knows itās time to start asking some serious questionsānoĀ matter what the consequences. With the police unable to find a lead and pressure mounting for Sully to abandon the investigation, he has a hunch that there is more to the case than a drug deal gone bad or a tale of family misfortune.

A hard drinker still haunted by his years as a war correspondent in Bosnia, Sully now must strike a dangerous balance between D.C.ās two extremesāthe cityās violent, depraved projects and its highest corridors of powerāwhile threatened by those who will stop at nothing to keep him from discovering the shocking truth. The only person he can trust is his old friend Alexis, a talented photographer and fellow war zone junkie, who is as sexy as she is fearless, but even Alexis can't protect Sully from everyone who would rather he give up the story.
