Set in the 1950s, a broke 18-year-old finds himself on the brink of eviction, barely scraping by in a run-down apartment. Thanks to a favor from his landlord, he’s sent to a strange job interview — one that quickly pulls him into a world far bigger and more dangerous than he expected. With no one to rely on and money running out fast, he’ll have to survive — and eventually choose between the good or the bad path in a corrupt city overflowing with crime, secrets, and opportunity.
