Renowned for his ability to exploit legal loopholes, Benn Bluestone thrives on the wealth and excitement his career provides. However, the moral ambiguities of his profession have left him jaded, and he yearns for a final, lucrative case that will allow him to retire comfortably.​

At the start of the new year, Bluestone takes on three promising cases that seem to be his ticket out. As he delves deeper, he discovers that these cases are interconnected and tied to his own past. Central to the intrigue is the enigmatic drug kingpin known as Sombra, or "The Shadow," whose true identity remains shrouded in mystery. Bluestone must navigate a treacherous landscape of cartel politics, betrayals, and personal vendettas. He faces critical decisions that could either secure his freedom or lead to his downfall, potentially bringing the entire federal justice system to a halt and resulting in a life sentence without parole
