Ryan Foley is an enterprising young man who runs a popular local food truck. Ryan has two problems. The first is his bitter feud with the owner of a rival truck. The second is the secret affair he's carrying on with ANGELA CALDERA, a married woman. When Angela returns to JFK from a tryst with Ryan in Miami, she's greeted by a courier who hands her a key. It unlocks the trunk of a car in long term parking area where Angela discovers Ryan's dead body.

Detectives Nichols and Stevens realize that someone is trying to send Angela a message. But who? Was it NIKHIL FAYED, owner of that rival food truck? Or does it involve the Caldera family? VICTOR CALDERA, patriarch of the family and Angela's father in law, is a charismatic senator in the midst of a brutal campaign. His wife, MARTA, supports him at every step. Angela's husband RICK turned out to be quite a disappointment, a cuckold with few aspirations.

Nichols and Stevens tread carefully as their investigation takes them deeper into the corridors of power, where people will do anything to secure their legacy.
