In Miami, a 17-year-old boy is shot and killed in the middle of a frenzy at a party. With a large group of partygoers and no clear witnesses, Detective Carlos Castellanos has to sift through a jumbled web of potential suspects and find the shooter before they can get away. He begins by talking to the victim's friends and family, trying to piece together what happened leading up to the shooting. As the investigation progresses, new details emerge, and Castellanos and his team must pivot their focus to new suspects.
Meanwhile, Memphis detectives are investigating the brutal murder of a security guard at a local convenience store. The victim, a former marine, was shot multiple times during a robbery gone wrong. With little to go on besides security footage, Detective Kevin Lundy and his team begin their search for the two suspects. Poring over surveillance footage, they identify a few potential suspects, but the road to their capture proves to be a difficult one. Frustrated by several dead ends, Lundy refuses to give up and tirelessly pursues every lead.
As the hours tick by, both teams are under immense pressure to solve their cases before the trail goes cold. Each detective must use their instincts, experience, and resourcefulness to catch the killers and bring justice to the victims' families. Will they be able to solve the cases in time, or will the killers slip through their grasp?
