Ever since they first became friends in elementary school, Trey and Marlo have been sticking together through all the ups and downs of life on the streets. When desperate times lead them down a dangerous path of crime, they somehow manage to elude the authorities, even after robbing several banks in Orange County, California. But when a threat arises, they must make hard-hitting decisions to save their lives and freedom. After Trey and Marlo destroy evidence-or so they think-they flee to Miami to pursue a new game. When another opportunity presents itself, an inexperienced Trey and Marlo immerse themselves into a drug gang. After they steal a crew from the same dealer, they are supplied with all the connections needed to start the first black drug cartel in America. Although the young men have high hopes of stepping away from the past, they soon discover that life is as unpredictable as their choices. As dangerous lines are crossed yet again, sacrifices must be made-this time for the organization. In this urban thriller, two young men destined for a life of crime learn that living in the fast lane comes with a price.
