When a crime boss targets his family, Detective Tom Kessler turns to the last man he should trust: cocaine dealer Pete Johnson. Their covert alliance drags them through suppliers, surveillance, and violent enforcers. As pressure mounts, one wrong move could destroy Tom’s career, his family, and the only ally he shouldn’t have.

A detective and a high‑end cocaine dealer join forces to take down a corrupt MP who assaulted Pete’s wife. Their off‑the‑books op unravels into a deadly web of surveillance, political pressure, and foreign intelligence interest. Justice becomes obsession as both men are dragged into a world where one wrong move is fatal.
