After earning his stripes at one of Michigan's most notorious penitentiaries, Gladiator School, Emilio is focused on one goal-helping his brother escape a looming federal indictment. However, his life takes a sharp turn when he meets Gabriella, a woman driven by a thirst for justice after the brutal murders of her parents.

Gabriella, fueled by vengeance, agrees to assist Emilio in his mission but only at a steep price. Unbeknownst to him, her motives run deeper than simple assistance. As the two form an uneasy alliance, Emilio soon finds himself pulled into Gabriella's dark world, where loyalty, betrayal, and the quest for revenge blur the lines between right and wrong. Unprepared for the lengths Gabriella is willing to go, Emilio soon realizes that when you grab a beautiful rose, you also risk being pricked by its thorns.

This tense and emotional thriller explores themes of redemption, loyalty, and the personal cost of seeking justice, as Emilio and Gabriella navigate a dangerous path that could either save or destroy them.
