Synopsis
It should have all been so easy for Vincent Madigan. Take four hundred grand from the thieves who stole it in the first place and who could they turn to for help?
Madigan is charming, resourceful, and knows how to look after himself. The only problem is that he's up to his neck in debt to Sandią - the drug king of East Harlem. This one heist will free Madigan from Sandią's control and give him the chance he needs to get his life back on track.
But things go wrong when Madigan is forced to kill his co-conspirators and a child is shot in the crossfire. Now both Sandią and the collected might of the NYPD are hunting him down, and the one cop assigned to lead the case is the very last person he could have expected.
Employing every deception and ruse he can think of, Madigan must stay one step ahead in a battle of wits that will test him to his limits. Can he evade justice for his crimes, or will his own conscience be his final undoing?
