Isaac organized Slate with his six buddies from college. The year after his best buddy graduated, he got them together and set up Slate in each of their hometowns. They all embraced the goal of having sex with women of their choosing whenever they chose. The common element that spanned all encounters was their motto of, that there would be no witnesses at the end.
"No Witness, no body, no crime," was their motto.
Alex, known as the "Black Cincinnati Annie Oakley" takes the lull in her assignments as an opportunity to go on vacation.
Driving her beloved black twelve cylinder convertible Jaguar slowly along the private road from the highway through the dense forest leading to the "Northern Illinois Apple Haven" she almost hits a woman screaming for help as four men pursue her.
Alex tells everyone to stop as she declares her status as an Illinois policewoman.
The person in the lead of three that seemed to be chasing the woman and a man that was pursuing the woman, raises his gun and gets ready to fire when the gun in his hand seems to fly into the air and he falls screaming that he has lost a finger. The person immediately behind him raises his gun but seems to stop midway and drop it, as he kneels and puts his hand on his chest were a large red spot blossoms around a small hole. The third person raises his hands and obeys Alex's command to a lay down.
The person closest to the woman stops and begins to speak when Alex tells him to lay face down.
A 911 call and a call to her Lieutenant Governor boss puts things on the road onto a case that spans the country.
Vacation transitions into one of the most challenging cases that Alex has ever undertaken. She would be a black detective interacting with an almost totally white police force across the Indiana, Ohio, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Washington States.
She asks Trey, her red headed, blue eyed, six foot two, work partner if he is willing to take the lead position when they interface with the local law enforcement personnel.
The arrangement works well to break down the official barriers.
It is not law enforcement but the Slate leaders and their membership that attack them with the intent to kill.
The two of them leave a trail of dead and wounded as they roundup and charge the Slate leaders.
The Federal government steps in to take charge and brings the entire group to face trial in Cincinnati Federal court.
The Illinois Slate leader, who escaped capture, attacks makes a final attempt to eliminate the black detective that has decimated the organization that he helped to found.
It is his last mistake.
