Kane Kulpa is now the most influential criminal on the south side, which makes him one of the most influential criminals in the city. As Kane's competition works to consolidate power in the vacuum created by Tran Van Kahn's death, Detective Vincent Bayonne investigates the death of the mayor's son. The mayor's justice and Bayonne's goals appear to coincide, but in Central City, nothing's as simple as it seems. To keep the city from falling into chaos, Kane must acknowledge the truth about himself and Bayonne must support Kane, even as he struggles to accept the men he and Kane have become.
