When British drug lord Gareth "Hairy" Carey stakes out territory in their jurisdiction, openly gay police officer Rick Miles is determined to use the opportunity to prove his worth to prejudiced colleagues. With no backup but his partner Graciela Cruz, Rick goes undercover without official sanction to win a spot in Carey's gang using his good looks and sheer bravado. Now Rick is in the shark tank, but this isn't his first cruise. He's prepared to deal with vicious drug traffickers. What he isn't prepared for is Billy Rose, Carey's astonishingly handsome spoiled brat paramour. Billy is sexy and smart, and he delights in seducing dangerous men-like the one Rick is pretending to be. Juggling the dangerous distraction while maintaining his cover, Rick faces a series of disastrous events. Marooned in a realm of sly deception, immediate reprisal, and sudden violence, he's forced to act against the dictates of his conscience to stay alive when a single misstep could mean death.
