...pretty blond hair, innocent blue eyes, and at the age of four is only the size of a two-year-old toddler. But for nearly a year, this child, who is mentally retarded and physically disabled, has been the subject of suspicion and fear in her home town of Emporia, Kans. When the child's mother tried to enroll her in a public school program for handicapped children, permission was denied.

...army of Frank Lopez (Robert Loggia), a car and drug dealer. In the class structure of Sunbelt crime, Frank is the middle-class middle man, tangling fatally with both the coke aristocracy of Bolivia and Tony, his proletarian successor. He has two things Tony wants: power and a bored blond mistress (Michelle Pfeiffer), with a Kew-pie-doll mouth soured into a who-cares sneer and the bad habit of powdering her nose from the inside. Tony also develops a paternal letch for his teen-age sister (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio). The combination of greed and blood lust is too much...
