The city of Stilwater is tearing itself apart. Gangs control every block, corruption runs through every office, and ordinary people are just trying not to get caught in the crossfire. The Boss, a young guy drifting through a broken city, ends up in the wrong place at the worst time and survives a shootout that should’ve killed him. He’s pulled out of the chaos by Julius Little, leader of the Third Street Saints, who sees something in him—determination, fearlessness, and a spark that Stilwater hasn’t crushed yet. Julius offers him a place in the Saints, and The Boss takes it, stepping straight into a war against three brutal factions fighting for control. Working with Dex, Troy, and the rest of the crew, The Boss starts rising fast. Every takedown, every territory gained, pushes the Saints into the spotlight and turns The Boss into the kind of street legend Stilwater hasn’t seen in years. But the higher he climbs, the more the cracks show. Betrayal brews inside the gang. Deals are made behind closed doors. And The Boss learns that the biggest threat to the Saints might not be the enemies outside… it might be the people standing right next to him.
