Street Rules

For Frank, L.A.P.D. Homicide Lieutenant L. A. Franco and her homicide squad, it's business as usual -- a multiple murder, ugly as it is, at least seems to have an easy explanation. Until it coincides with an untimely drive-by shooting.

The drive-by victim is Placa Estrella, a rising young Chicana gang-banger. Placa was a toddler on the streets when Franco was just a rookie, and for her Placa's death is personal. The murder appears to be a routine gang hit, but as Frank tracks every lead to it's logical conclusion, it becomes apparent that this case is anything but routine.

The investigation ultimately pulls Frank and her squad in conflicting directions while drawing Frank closer to the county's new Chief Coroner, Gail Lawless. Through a series of twists and turns, all of Frank's leads eventually bring her to the disquieting possibility that the killer she seeks might well be one of own brothers in blue.
