Synopsis by Jason Buchanan

An LAPD cop gets caught up in a treacherous love triangle while going undercover to take down rival gangs in Los Angeles and Las Vegas in this tense crime drama exploring the allure of money and power. As warring gang leaders Cole (Michael Madsen) and Gino (Robert Miano) vie for control of the entire west coast, undercover cop Danny (Michael Masini) plots to take both syndicates down from the inside. Danny's mission is complicated, however, when he falls for the alluring Angela (Ali Costello), who has reluctantly fallen into a world of greed and materialism, and whose jaded façade masks a deep-rooted need to be loved. But Angela is married to a very powerful and evil man, and her relationship with volatile Gino may ultimately yield deadly consequences for dedicated cop Danny. Eric Roberts and Tiny Lister co-star.
