Willis Moore is a detective who was suspended. After his first day back on the force, he cruises downtown Cary Street looking for action. He finds a hustler named Corey who reminds him of a previous lover. Will wants a piece of Corey, and won't let his badge get in the way of hooking up.

Will Moore is a detective with the Richmond City police department. A case he was involved with went down badly and he was given a month's sabbatical to pull himself together after the death of his informant, a young man named Teabag with whom Will had let himself become sexually involved. Back on the force now, Will finds himself drawn to another street punk, a hustler named Corey, who seeks police assistance to protect his "boys" from a violent attacker. Though he and Corey work well together, Will can't seem to shake the feeling he will eventually fail to protect Corey ... the same way he failed to save Tea.
