- Synopsis
- THOMAS DOUGLAS, a small-time hitman working for a small-town gang, is swept into a passionate and inexplicable romance with a mysterious woman, SOFIA, while also unintentionally pushing his brother, JAMES, into perilous circumstances.
  
  Thomas is faced with a dilemma: abandon ship with the poetic soul he's fallen for, or transcend his brutal history to embrace a path of love, loyalty, and courage.
  
  Unfortunately for Thomas, there's something much deeper at play; a cruel and calculated revenge plot. And Thomas, who's just developed an appetite for redemption, is its primary target.
