Forget what you’ve heard. Forget what you’ve read. Forget what you’ve seen. In New York, this is the way it really is.
When the NYPD crashes a major powdered-sugar deal, reporters corner John Falcone, a local mobster, for answers. To polish his tarnished reputation, Falcone hires Todd Barrett, keeping him loyal with a steady supply of nose candy. However, Falcone’s brutal and unconventional tactics put him at odds with Don Ricci, the big boss, sparking the threat of a mob war. When Todd’s wife is caught in the crossfire, will the spin doctor turn the tables on the kingpins?
