Coco Chavez and Junior Armstrong are two small-time criminals who make money at blackmail and sex scams. They attempt to break into the big time by

However, during the kidnapping, they accidentally kill the young wife ofLouisiana Senator Hornbeck.Racked by guilt, Coco and the group are pursued by veteran
FBI agent Sadie Hawkins and grizzledNew Orleans detective David Friedman. The two combative officers enjoy showing up one another during their investigation, as well as commiserate about their jobs and personal foibles. Coco and Junior also have to deal with henchmen hired by the Senator to get revenge on the group.As the plot unfolds, it appears that the murder may not have been entirely accidental.
