2023: Big city politics, nasty secrets, a dirty cop, and a deranged sociopath.
The last scion of a once-powerful political family, Worcester mayor John O’Toole has his sights on vastly higher aspirations. When night shift paramedic Thomas Archer uncovers a secret that could upend the mayor’s career, O’Toole is determined to silence him, and sends Eamon Conroy, a brutal former cop, to ensure the truth remains under wraps.
But O’Toole doesn’t stop there. With bribes, buried secrets, and personal attacks, he wreaks havoc on Archer’s life in an attempt to save himself. Archer’s troubles continue to mount when domestic terrorist and militia member Gerald Knak, who blames Archer for his wife’s recent death, sets in motion a deadly plan for revenge.
With two forces of evil aligned against him, Archer doesn’t stand a chance. But things aren’t always what they seem — and he may just have a few tricks up his sleeve in a last gambit to get out alive.
