Rachel Chavez owns - and lives in - an L.A. parking garage. She's trying to stay sober and make ends meet. When she discovers a dented car with smudges of what might be blood on the fender, she learns of the hit-and-run death of an executive at InterUrban Water District. This is Chinatown in the 21st century, plus the conflicting emotions of a woman trying stay afloat and alive, the mixed motives of everyone from activists to bureaucrats, and an eclectic band of misfits who help Rachel solve the crime - from homeless fortune-teller Irene to night-shift office cleaner Goldie.
