A 14-year-old boy is killed in a shooting. The prime suspect is the boy's classmate (Danny Gerard), who is hiding guns in his school locker. For police detective Briscoe (
Jerry Orbach), there is more to the case than the standard investigation and paperwork; one of the parties involved is the son of Briscoe's old friend, former detective Ted Parker (
Robert Hogan). ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
