Jimmy Spracklin thinks he knows Haight-Ashbury when he’s called out to the neighborhood to investigate the murder of artist John Blakely in the spring of 1968. Marie, Spracklin’s beloved step-daughter, ran away to the birthplace of acid rock during the Summer of Love the previous year. What Spracklin learns quickly is that heroin is now replacing acid as the most popular drug in Haight-Ashbury. Gangs are taking over. The scene is getting violent. Now Spracklin, the head of the San Francisco Police Department’s famed Bureau of Inspectors, must catch Blakely’s killer while he struggles to bring his daughter home.
