Synopsis
1932 New York underworld schemes intertwine with 1711 ship events, linking fates across centuries.
In 1932, the criminal underworld of New York continues to churn with new schemes and old grudges. Graham Specter, a man whose peculiar worldview drives his every action, finds himself at a crossroads when circumstances surrounding his former associate Ladd Russo take an unexpected turn. His unusual plan involves targeting Eve Genoard, a young woman connected to the city's underground, and Jacuzzi Splot, a gang leader who has taken refuge in the Genoard mansion with his crew. As tensions rise, new faces appear in the city: a mysterious woman who finds herself under the protection of Jacuzzi's gang, a visitor seeking answers at the local prison, and a young man haunted by figures from his past. These disparate threads begin to intertwine, hinting at deeper connections that stretch back centuries to events that occurred aboard a ship in 1711. What begins as a series of seemingly unrelated incidents gradually reveals itself to be part of a larger, more complex tapestry of fate, loyalty, and the consequences of choices made long ago.
