Plot summary
Finn Wallace, patriarch of the powerful Wallace crime syndicate, is murdered by a young Welsh Traveler named Darren, who was oblivious to his target's identity. With support from Finn's widow Marian, his son Sean takes over the syndicate, immediately shutting down all business to other criminal enterprises in the city until his father's killer is identified. Finn's advisor Ed Dumani, whose son Alex is lifelong friends with Sean, advises against this extreme measure, but Sean proceeds regardless. Suspicion immediately falls on Albanian gang boss Luan, who was absent from Finn's wake. Elliot, a low-ranking member of the Wallace organization, takes initiative when he learns that Luan has Finn's missing driver Jack captive. Revealing himself a highly skilled combatant, Elliot recovers Jack from Luan's hideout, earning favor with Sean. Meanwhile Darren's estranged father Kinney, a leader among the local Travelers, learns what his son has done, and tracks Darren down to his hideout, recovering him while having Darren's friend and getaway driver tortured to death. Kinney sends Darren away with his Traveler connections. Elliot, revealed to be an undercover policeman, receives intel on Darren's hideout from his handler Vicky Chung. Elliot kills Kinney's men after a brutal fight, but Darren is already gone, and the remaining captive kills himself before Elliot can question him. Meanwhile Ed Dumani murders Jack in order to keep the late Finn's secrets.
