Description

Boston, 1918. A city in turmoil as soldiers return home from World War One, bringing with them an epidemic of Spanish influenza. Against this backdrop of social unrest and violence, two men find themselves drawn into a world of danger and deception. Danny Coughlin, the son of one of Boston's most powerful police captains, is an undercover cop tasked with hunting down revolutionaries and anarchists who seek to overthrow the city's ruling classes. Meanwhile, Luther Lawrence, on the run from his past, takes refuge in the Coughlin household, where he becomes embroiled in a web of loyalty and deception. As the city teeters on the brink of chaos, Danny and Luther must confront the storm of violence that threatens to engulf them if each is to survive.
