Commander Carl Cotton

Commander Carl Cotton is a legendary cop, known for his intelligence, determination, and by-the-book approach. His diligence brought down some of the most notorious criminals on the West coast, including the largest Mexican drug cartel in history. But behind the accolades lies a man haunted by personal tragedy that shattered his family and hardened his soul.

When the Mayor of New York enlists him to investigate rumors about a secret gang running rampant through the city’s criminal underworld, Cotton is skeptical, but he knows there are unexplained details that demand investigation—and stir up memories he’d rather forget.

As Cotton delves deeper into the seedy underbelly of New York, he discovers a web of corruption and deceit that threatens to subvert everything he’s fought for. But even as he wages war against the forces of darkness, he grapples with his own demons. 

Ultimately, Cotton’s single-minded pursuit of justice leads him down a dangerous path—one that threatens not just his life but everything he stands for.
