His deep dive into the mysterious suicides and the role of the elusive 'X' who seems to be behind everything will be his ticket back to the top. And the trail is hot: it leads him first to a murdered friend and then to a huge batch of cocaine. Meanwhile, Tommy's seventeenyearold nephew Linus is getting in deep himself. He's been selling his ADHD medication since he was thirteen, hoping for bigger opportunities. Now there's one staring him in the facein the form of a huge batch of cocaine. But there's a larger plan behind what is happening, and the business turns out to be both stranger and more dangerous than either of them could have imagined.
