Marco, a sadistic psychopath and his "Ghetto Soldiers" wants domination. He knows that the only way that it could happen is to take over his rival Noog's operation, by flushing him out and killing him. But first, he has to find Noog's drugs and money and get his money also hidden in the warehouse that Noog occupies. Marco calls a "187" out on the cops and Noog's family members, starting with his mother at her wake. The city falls into mayhem starting with a bloody massacre at a church and multiple homicides on both sides of the Mississippi River. This the story of a ruined part of St. Louis's North side, where crime, violence, pollution, drugs and poverty still rule the streets. Victims of this chaos are Monk and Tasha, high school seniors, who dreamed of ways of escaping the harsh life of the ghetto. They fell in love, almost overnight, and soon find themselves caught in the crossfire of Marco and Noog's street war. Welcome to Ghetto Soldiers 187 PHILLIP A.
