Los Angeles Police Department detective Russell Poole has spent years trying to solve his biggest case -- the murders of The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur -- but after two decades, the investigation remains open. Jack Jackson, a reporter desperate to save his reputation and career, is determined to find out why. In search of the truth, the two team up and unravel a growing web of institutional corruption and lies.
A disgraced reporter and a persistent detective collide while chasing the long-buried truth behind the murders of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. This investigation pulls back the curtain on a conspiracy that refuses to stay dead in the shadows of Los Angeles.
