Three detectives in the corrupt and brutal L.A. police force of the 1950s use differing methods to uncover a conspiracy behind the shotgun slayings of the patrons at an all-night diner.

In 1992, semi-retired detective and author Martin Dye is hired to track down a missing duffel bag of cash tied to a fatal 1970s crash that left one friend dead and another in a wheelchair. As Martin follows the trail through old classmates, small-town gossip, and buried lies, he uncovers a dark legacy of drugs, betrayal, and shattered lives - and learns some secrets refuse to stay buried.
