Handlung
Sechs Tote, darunter ein Cop: Ein scheinbar sinnloses Blutbad bringt die Polizei von Los Angeles zum Kochen. Die drei Top-Agenten der Stadt, der gerade beförderte Ed Exley, der erfahrene Jack Vincennes und der als Schläger bekannte Bud White, übernehmen den Fall und stossen bei ihren Ermittlungen auf einen unbeschreiblichen Sumpf aus Drogen, Mord und Korruption - und die Polizei steckt selbst mittendrin. Jetzt zeigt die Stadt der Engel ihr wahres Gesicht - ein Gesicht, das man nur einmal lebend zu sehen bekommt...
