How far will you go to avenge a brother you don't really know?
Tracy Lawless comes from a family of small-time but well-known criminals. And when he was old enough to reach the pedals of a getaway car, he followed in that family business.
Arrested at a young age, he was given the choice between military service or prison. He chose to enlist and was put to work using his special skill set for the American government.

description

Fast forward many years and he's done something to land himself in stockade until whatever he had done blew over. And in that time, his little brother was killed.
Armed with an old photo and a slew of bad memories, he sets out to find the people responsible and enact his own form of justice.
The problem with that is that sometimes justice has already been served.

description

I like where this is going so far and I can't imagine that Brubaker and Philips are taking us on a ride that will be anything less than spectacularly seedy.
