Local homeless man, Griff Slocum, has been found dead.
Murdered. Rod and Clay, Chavez High seniors, fall under
suspicion—as well as a few other school bullies including
Humberto Gomez, who suddenly has money to throw around.
Ernesto is on the case because he can't let the police
handle things—Griff was someone he saw frequently, and he
feels that he must help. And after all, it was Ernesto who
witnessed Rod harassing Griff. Rod's student ID was found
near the body—a dark cloud of suspicion hangs over his head.
Rod's parents retain a lawyer, Ernesto's uncle, to help
their son. Humberto Gomez, Rod's cousin, Rick Alanzar,
Humberto's best friend, and Clay Aguirre are also
implicated. It turns out that Griff traded baseball cards.
Some were valuable. Very valuable. Lacey Serrano, a freshman
bully and Humberto's girlfriend, is suddenly getting lavish
gifts. Humberto is questioned. Did Griff possess something
to die for?
