It's 2028. Eight years ago, a catastrophic virus decimated the male population. In the wake of the devastation, doctors discovered that infected women were unable to carry boys to term. With tensions rising and no answers in sight, the criminal underworld filled the void--preventing an irreversible societal collapse and placing themselves in positions of even greater power. Eventual technological advances in fertility science allowed life to continue. The world moved on. 

Now mafia Donna Jacqueline Serafini keeps a tentative peace in the city of Ashburgh standing between the ruthless Piedra Family and the corruption that has infested the local police. 

 When her young son disappears amid nefarious rumors surrounding the cult-like dealings of well-known religious order Sons of Adam, she turns to the only woman she can trust, her former lover and  sometimes-friend, Detective Sophie Thompson.

Though their tumultuous past lingers between them, Jackie and Sophie must put their re-kindling feelings aside, overcome old grudges, and find a way to trust one another again to find seven year old Sam Serafini and take down the Sons of Adam before it's too late.
