During a police raid at the Nightingale, Vivian stumbles upon a dead man initially mistaken for a nameless bootlegger. As suspicions mount, she is thrust into the perilous worlds of New York's underground and its elite, where wealth can conceal any transgression.

Caught between these dangerous realms, she must navigate a society where the lives of the less fortunate are deemed expendable—including her own.
