Dish Served Cold

Young girls are being murdered in downtown Los Angeles. Detective John Cooper and his relatively new partner, Kelly McArthur are assigned to the case. Problem, his new boss, Commander Randall Sinclair wants it solved quickly to further his own personal career goals, but will stop at nothing to destroy the career of his long time nemesis Cooper in the process. Future victims don't seem to be relevant to Sinclair, leaving the detective to fight more than one enemy. Further troubles for Cooper. Omari Jackson, a life long inmate of the California penal system, has been thwarted in an escape bid from a downtown court house. He has taken six hostages and barricaded himself in one of the offices. His only request. Detective John Cooper must come to the court house. If the detective refuses, the hostages will die. Cooper isn't aware of any reason why he would be requested specifically by Jackson, but he is absolutely sure about one thing. He has no choice.
