Chuck Watts, a fugitive wanted for manslaughter in Kentucky, has been keeping a relatively-low profile as an enforcer for Andrew Max, who controls the strippers and hookers of New Orleans' club circuit. Unknown to Chuck, Max runs an extensive crime empire with a reach far beyond strippers and hookers: a world of violence and betrayal that quickly overtakes Chuck as he finds himself the key man in a war of competing crime syndicates. As the bloody struggle erupts around him, Chuck is driven to desperate action by one compelling motive: get out alive.
