A young woman is brutally murdered and PIs Strange and Quinn are
forced to confront their own part in the crime. Private
Investigator Derek Strange and his partner, Terry Quinn, are
running a PI business in the seedy underbelly of Washington DC are
approached by a young man asking them to find his girlfriend who
has gone missing. And so Strange and Quinn find her. Just another
day? Not quite. In the grimy underworld inhabited by Strange,
nothing is that simple. For Strange and Quinn's efforts have led to
a young mother being brutally murdered - a devastating discovery
that causes them both to question the morality by which they live.
And yet at the same time they need to continue the search for
another missing girl, a teenage runaway who shows up in a porn
video. And who hasn't been seen since. Bleak, gritty and moving,
SOUL CIRCUS superbly brings to life the devastating story of life
and death in Washington's black ghettos.
