It's 1978 in "America's Finest City"-San Diego, California-and one rookie cop is learning the hardest lessons the streets have to teach. Luke Jones-a recently graduated, Shakespeare-quoting literature major-is about to discover that dealing with crooks is the easiest part of his new job. For here, in a world populated by people ruled by their obsessions, Luke's strong will and quick tongue alienate many of his senior officers, and he must fight for acceptance.
