When Clarence is arrested for a crime he didn't commit but was inadvertently tied to, Bev's worst fears are realized. But the true tragedy strikes when Bev is killed in a mysterious car accident, leaving Clarence and their children-Clare, CJ, Adam, and Eve-shattered and adrift.
Clarence vows to leave the streets, but his past is a shadow he can't outrun. A debt to a ruthless dealer, Chalk, resurfaces with a terrifying new threat: the kidnapping of his youngest children. Now, with the help of his older kids and his ex-military best friend Tasha, Clarence must go back into the darkness for a violent, desperate fight to reclaim what's left of his family and uncover the truth behind his wife's death. In a world of street heat and broken vows, some debts are paid in blood.
