Set in 1977, sixteen-year-old best friends Tommy and Rob get caught up in gang violence and murder in their previously idyllic hometown of Clayton, in suburban Chicago. Wanted by the police and Chicago gangsters seeking revenge, the boys escape to San Francisco’s Haight Ashbury and hideout under assumed names. They dive headlong into the turbulent city life of punk rock, protests, gay rights, drugs, and Chinatown gangs. Despite diverging interests, their friendship holds together until Lisa comes between them. Meanwhile, someone from Clayton is hot on their trail, with frightening consequences.
