Inspired by true events.
Jordan Bell writes about love but doesn't believe in it anymore. Not since his wife turned their marriage into civil warfare. Now he's back selling cocaine on the side to fund his divorce, because his writing alone can no longer pay the bills. But when he gets the chance to write alleged drug lord Kamau Bryant's biography, it seems like the perfect comeback.
Inside federal prison, Jordan is allowed to interview Kamau under strict conditions. As he takes notes, Jordan uncovers a love story that defies all odds. Kamau speaks dearly of his wife and partner in crime, Neeta Bryant. Official reports claim Neeta is dead, but Jordan's research suggests she might still be out there, trying to free her husband. It's a love that Jordan can't help but admire, even as he questions how such a thing could exist in a world as dark as theirs.
But Jordan's growing fascination with Kamau and Neeta's love story is suddenly brought to a halt during his last prison visit. He learns the hard way that federal prisons hold more than just criminals.
