Two worlds on a razor's edge
The racially charged streets of 1990s Boston have hit a record-high murder rate. With dominating drug lord Whitey Bulger out of the picture, several rising-talent gang leaders vie for the throne, leaving in their war's wake more bodies than the corrupt police bother to deal with.
Patrick, an Irish Catholic boxer fresh out of prison for something he didn't do, returns to his old neighborhood and barely recognizes it with the proliferation of heroin and its zombie addicts. At the same time, his old high school friend Nate, a Black out-of-state college graduate, comes back to Boston to attend yet another funeral.
When Patrick flies to Ireland to pull a money drop orchestrated by his IRA-connected former cellmate, the city mayor, and possibly even Bill Clinton, Nate digs deeper into the gang underground to uncover the truth about his cousin's death. Fueled with vengeance for their cousins who were murdered by one another's associates, old friends collide in the last place they ever thought they'd find themselves, but they manage to see beyond their ravenous craving for swift justice and together tackle the true cause of all the violence.
Breaking down neighborhood boundaries and racial biases, Redeem the Lines will thrust you through whiskey benders, bare-knuckle brawls, and midnight rendezvous to expose the true colors of prejudice and corruption and find the key to resolving both of them.
