Tom has been caught up over the years in Jeremy's world of drugs, extortion, and prostitutes, while Jeremy, vindictive and vicious, either protects Tom or uses him, but always controls him. Added to the mix is Paulie, a junkie two years clean and Tom's girlfriend, and also the mother of his daughter. This lethal triangle shifts when word gets out Tom has been talking to the police, men from the past who have a lot to lose reappear, and suddenly Tom and Paulie are pawns in a much larger game, with everything at stake. 2006.
