Sixteen year olds Kicker Stevens and Ace Perry come from abusive families, and both girls find a surrogate family within a local girl gang: the Flygirls. Friends since childhood, Ace and Kicker participate in daring escapades to become initiated into the Flygirls. Once "jumped-in," the stakes for staying in the Flygirls get higher, including a dare to try heroin in order to impress the gang leader. Ace declines the drug, but Kicker tries it, and she embarks on an odyssey where 'scoring H' becomes a singular focus.
