Trust is a currency. And in this town, the exchange rate can kill you. Henry Tate once believed in doing things the right way. A small-town hospital clerk with a dying wife and a stack of medical bills, he thought desperation was temporary. Then he borrowed money from the wrong man-Kane, a syndicate boss who never forgets a debt. Now Henry is trapped in a world where every favor has a price, and the final payment is always blood. When Kane's accountant-Ellen, Henry's closest friend-offers a risky deal to wipe the slate clean, Henry's better judgment takes a fall. One forged ledger entry. One broken oath. And suddenly, he's holding a loaded secret worth killing for. But secrets don't stay buried. Not in a town where corruption spreads like rot from city hall to the morgue. Kane wants his money. The mayor wants silence. And Henry wants a second chance at the life that's already slipping away. With the cops closing in and the syndicate breathing down his neck, Henry turns to Joe, a loyal friend who'd rather throw punches than questions, and Lila, a sharp-tongued reporter hungry for the truth. Together, they push back-hard. But taking down a crime empire means bleeding for it. As bullets fly and dawn threatens to expose everything, Henry faces a brutal reality: Even if he wins, he may not live long enough to spend the victory. A life can be saved. A town can be redeemed. But trust? Once broken, it's gone for good.
