In 1992, Los Angeles burned. In the aftermath of the Rodney King beating and subsequent riots, a ground-breaking ceremony at the infamous intersection of Florence and Normandie unearths the body of a Korean shop owner. Black private eye Ivan Monk searches for the killer - many suspect the motives for the murder were racial. But then another body turns up, and while the FBI and the Rolling Daltons - the largest gang in the city - dog Monk's trail, Monk begins to question just how many people will be involved, and how many will die before he can find the truth.
