A 1986 mining explosion that left 10 men dead in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, launches this thrilling drama, inspired by a true story, that merges coastal fishing with an international cocaine smuggling ring. When Jimmy, a devoted family man and out-of-work miner, is offered a lifeline by his uncle Huey — a charming, mysterious entrepreneur with a lobster boat and a promise of steady pay — he jumps at the chance for a new beginning. But beneath the surface lies something far darker. What starts as honest labour turns into a descent into organized crime and international smuggling. As Jimmy and his friends are drawn deeper into Huey’s web, loyalty turns to fear, and survival becomes the only goal.
