Plot Overview

When bad intel given to her by a respected snitch causes a raid on a gunrunning ring to go sour, the formidable Lieutenant in charge of the investigation orders Molenski to bring in her snitch, but she worries about his safety. Eventually, the snitch becomes the target of both the Chinese gunrunners and the Mexican street gangs they're supplying with weapons. Meanwhile, Hunter is visited by a distraught woman who wants him to prove that the infant son she gave up for adoption 17 years ago was murdered and not killed accidentally. The problem is, she's accusing the child's adopted father, who happens to be a well-respected judge.
