At thirty-six years old, rookie cop Brian Geromina already had quite a diverse life before joining the NYPD. He was an amateur boxing champ as a kid, did an eight year stint in the Army (including a tour in the Gulf), and then spent eight more behind the bar of a Brooklyn mob-joint, owned by mafia Capo "Allie-Boy" Grasso. It's a resume that gave the "rookie" cop certain skills, street-smarts and instincts, most others don't possess; traits that will help him discover a radical Saudi sheikh preaching at a Bay Ridge mosque. And Officer Geromina (known as "Geronimo" by his peers) pleas for an investigation, in the wake of 9/11; his requests fall on the deaf ears of NYPD brass. Despite struggling with a personal tragedy, the tenacious cop will start a probe of his own, and uncover a potential Islamic terror plot. Still unable to sway his superiors, he's left with no choice but to take matters into his own hands. But to do so, he'll need to call upon all of his special skills, and make a deal with a "Devil" from his past. However, he'll soon learn that all is not as it seems, and find himself deep in the middle of something he wasn't prepared for. And when it becomes personal, he's again forced to take measures he never would have imagined. And just when his troubles appear to be over, he'll be hit with a new "surprise" he never saw coming
