Probation Officer Katlin La Mar of the Gang Violence Suppression Unit in Santa Ana finds Maria Esparza, the young mother of her nine-year-old probationer, "Mooch, " too late.

No one seems to have a motive to kill Maria, but Mooch escapes from Juvenile Detention with the help of his gang members (dealers in black tar heroin), determined to avenge his mother's death. Katlin is determined to find Mooch and suspects Roulette Walker, another probationer, knows more than she's telling.
