As a reporter for the Baltimore "Herald", Darryl Billups is a black journalist who won't kiss butt and always speaks his mind. A crackpot voice mail warns of an impending wave of white supremacist violence, and when bombs start to go off all over town, Billup quickly becomes the lone black reporter on the hunt for justice.
