These four friends, Lisa, Felicia, Angie, and Michelle, will tell their tales and discover that their sudden downfalls are somehow connected to the murder of the father of one of their children. As Lisa and Felicia embark on an investigative journey, they uncover deadly lies and secrets. After the two unearth that the quartet is tied to a drug lord who has placed a hit out on them, they find out that Jennifer, Felicia's neighbor, put her life on the line during her horrific escapade. Felicia embraces Jennifer for her heroic efforts and shelters her, but something goes wrong when their individual tales take an awful plunge. As action, mystery, suspense, infidelities, and murder attack this neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago, everyone has one person to blame. Just as you think the story is over, someone has to continue the saga of the drug lord.
