Produktbeschreibung

The Kings of New Orleans are viciously fighting for control of the city, sending the crime rate skyrocketing. Among them, a benevolent doctor called the French Quarter King uses his resources to employ colorful Jesters to achieve his mission. Having groomed them from scared boys into strong, confident, dangerous men, their talents in mortal combat, law enforcement, and political leadership serve their King well. As victims of a horrific crime committed while Hurricane Katrina raged against the city, the Jesters didn't realize their fates would be sealed on that chaotic August day in 2005. Now, over 10 years later, their King's operation is in full swing.

In Episode One of the series, we learn about Michael Vengeance, a.k.a. "The Black Jester." Michael's expert skills in Mixed Martial Arts, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, knives, and Chinese throwing stars elevate him to the most lethal member of the team. Subject to violent mood swings due to his identity disorder, the other Jesters struggle to keep him in check while they enact their duties.

The Black Jester becomes the police's main suspect in the murders of dozens of shady businessmen in the city. On the run and scared, a young woman named Rose White finds herself caught up with the vigilante and entangled in the perilous power struggle within the city. The Black Jester's instinct to protect the young woman may cause her more harm than good as he struggles to reconcile his personalities.

To the misfortune of the Jesters, one man catches a glimpse of their operation. Detective Ron Jenkins of the New Orleans Police Department is able to tie Rose to the aggressively hunted vigilante. He must determine her role in the situation in hopes he can find out who the Black Jester is before the body count reaches epic proportions.
