L.A.P.D. Hollywood division officer Ashley Ruth has successfully managed to attain her goal to graduate from the very tough Los Angeles Police Academy. She has now just realized her second goal: making it through her one-year probationary period as a rookie cop. But nothing has prepared her for the wild ride that she is about to embark on as a Hollywood beat cop. Morally, Ashley knows that she has to disclose the evidence she has stumbled onto. She grapples with the agonizing decision that will certainly incriminate her partner if true. At the same time she must restore public confidence in a department that has characterized itself, unwittingly, as the poster-boy for the Code-Of-Silence foundation. Now meet One-Tough-Cop that gets chewed up, but instead of being spat out, she makes the system choke on it. She steadfastly refuses to become just another victim of that system, just another dead cop, and instead becomes an unlikely department legend and hero.
