An illegal homeless camp, an unscrupulous criminal element, and a furious neighborhood- a recipe for tragedy. Camp Faith squats in the path of the new freeway. The sprawling, makeshift encampment is unsightly and unsanitary, but its occupants have nowhere else to go. These are society's castoffs, made up of the homeless, the addicted, and the mentally unstable. Outreach groups are eager to help, but the local community wants the interlopers removed.

Now, a rash of nearby burglaries threatens to turn up the heat to unseen levels. Detectives with the Spokane Police Department must quickly find the culprits before tempers boil over. When a prominent local business owner is murdered, can the cops keep a lid on everything? Or will the neighborhood explode in chaos?
