This story is set in a world where corruption – even in the upper echelons of society – appears to be the order of the day. This is a world in which scape-goats are sought to cover up crimes, a world where police violence goes unpunished and the trafficking of children is nothing out the ordinary.

Antonio Santos and his lover Julie are determined to get away from this tight- ening web of crime and corruption – the birth of their baby only serves to increase their need for safety and justice. However, an unfortunate coinci- dence means that the couple suddenly find themselves trapped in the cen- tre of a political conspiracy. All at once, the innocent Antonio and Julie are at the mercy of a network of murderous politicians and their police force cronies. Before long, they find themselves no longer merely fighting for jus- tice but struggling to survive.
