En un proyecto de viviendas de Brooklyn, un grupo de "clockers" - traficantes de drogas de nivel callejero - venden drogas para Rodney Little (Delroy Lindo), un señor de la droga local. Rodney le dice a Ronald "Strike" Dunham (Mekhi Phifer), uno de sus principales clockers, que otro traficante, Darryl Adams (Steve White), le está robando y "tiene que ser eliminado", insinuando que quiere que Strike mate a Darryl.
Strike luego se reúne con su hermano, Victor Dunham (Isaiah Washington) e intenta persuadir a Victor para que mate a Darryl Adams. Rocco Klein (Harvey Keitel) y Larry Mazilli (John Turturro), detectives de homicidios, se dirigen a la escena del asesinato de Darryl Adams. Larry y Rocco reciben una llamada telefónica de otro detective que dice que un hombre ha confesado en una iglesia local que mató a Darryl.
La policía se encuentra con el hermano mayor de Strike, Victor, en la iglesia y lo llevan para ser interrogado. En la sala de interrogatorios, Victor le dice a Rocco que disparó a Darryl Adams en defensa propia. Rocco encuentra agujeros en esta historia y comienza a investigar el pasado de Victor, que incluye dos trabajos, una esposa, dos hijos, sin antecedentes penales y aspiraciones de mudarse de los proyectos; Rocco llega a la conclusión de que Victor está encubriendo a su hermano menor.
Rocco presiona a Strike pero Victor se mantiene firme en su historia, por lo que Rocco convence a Rodney de que Strike ha confesado e informado sobre la red de drogas de Rodney. Rocco arresta a Rodney y luego humilla a Strike frente a su equipo. Strike reúne algo de dinero y decide irse de la ciudad, pero un niño más joven que admiraba a Strike dispara a Errol, el ejecutor de Rodney, con el arma de Strike. Rocco permite que Strike se vaya de la ciudad.
