Plot Summary

In the crime-ridden neighborhood of Charlestown, Boston, bank robberies are a way of life, passed down from one generation to the next. Doug MacRay, a career thief, leads a crew of ruthless criminals, including his volatile best friend Jem Coughlin. But during a high-stakes heist, they take Claire Keesey, a bank manager, hostage—only to later realize that she lives in their neighborhood.

Doug, drawn to Claire’s kindness and innocence, begins to fall for her, hoping to escape his criminal life. But as FBI Agent Frawley closes in, tensions rise within the gang. Jem’s reckless behavior, their ties to a powerful crime boss, and an impossible “last job” force Doug to choose between loyalty, love, and survival.

With the law closing in and betrayal lurking at every corner, can Doug break free from the only life he’s ever known—or is he doomed to go down with the town?
