When Rufus Henry gets out of work camp for grand theft auto, he has only one place to go -- back to Durango Street. Sure, he'd like to keep a steady job and obey his parole officer, but there's no way to do that when the Gassers are chasing him. Rufus doesn't have a choice: he joins the rivals Moors. With a gang to back him up, he'll be all right on Durango -- for a while. But when the Gassers catch up to them, will he end up dead?
