Trane (Nicholas Gonzalez) was fighting for his country when he received the news that his family back on the home front had been violently taken from him. Shortly after Trane arrives in Rockaway, his old friend Dave (Ricardo Chavira) presents a grim picture of their neighborhood's tragic downfall: Criminals and prostitutes have taken over the streets, making life for law-abiding citizens a living hell. It isn't long before Trane's grief turns to bloodlust, and the soldier who was trained to kill uses his lethal skills to take on powerful neighborhood crime boss Juju (Mario Cimarro). But Trane has underestimated Juju's power, and after coming face to face with the relentless kingpin's right hand man Antwan (Manny Perez) the fearless vigilante discovers that his own sister Cari (Delilah Cotto) has become hopelessly entangled with a gang of Russian mobsters led by shrewd criminal Ivan (Oleg Taktarov). On a street where every step could be his last, Trane must now tread carefully as he works his way up the criminal food chain straight to the man who authorized the murder of his innocent wife and child. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
