Addison was like the big brother Clay never had. Separated for years by a family rift, the two cousins are back together at Daytop, a New York drug treatment facility. For Clay, working the program and staying clean is easier-and even more fun-with Addison around. Their reunion is cut tragically short, however, when an unarmed Addison is killed by police on a housing project rooftop. The shooting inflames the city and leaves Clay with a terrible choice-whether or not to tell truth about what really happened that night.
