Jimmy can empathize with Malcom Tenney. Their situations are reversed, though, one having lost a child, the other a father. But that's where the similarities end. Fourteen-year-old Roddy Tenney was an anomaly in Bedford-Stuyvesant, a violin prodigy with a bright future in a troubled neighborhood. His father tried his best to shield him from the dangers on Brooklyn's tough streets, providing him with a privileged life.
Malcolm is convinced the boy's death is related to a real estate developer who will stop at nothing, including murder, to take control of the valuable property where Tenney's Auto Emporium stands. As Jimmy goes undercover, mutual grief becomes the motivation in solving a case built on tragedy ... before another can occur.
