They were just kids when Claudette McPhearson took them all in. Eight of
them all together, all different races and ethnicities, but she loves
them as her own. One woman has taught them how to love, trust, and
respect one another. Claudette is their light at the end of a long,
troublesome tunnel, and she shines so bright.
Then, one dreadful day, it all comes to a crashing halt. Claudette is
walking to the bus stop from the juvenile correction center where she
volunteers her time, and she is gunned down in a seemingly random
drive-by shooting. In the blink of an eye, Claudette's kids are without
a parent once again, and their lives will never be the same.
They now own a house, and a $500,000 insurance policy is to be split
between eight kids. However, they soon discover that they have also
inherited enemies no one knew existed in Claudette's world.
Uncle Snap was well aware of those enemies, and after one of the
children happens upon a lockbox with keys, codes, and monetary figures,
Uncle Snap presents them with a video Mama has left, revealing the truth
about her nefarious activities. A secret bunker underneath the house
opens their eyes. It is filled with money, drugs, and specific
directions from Claudette, who built an empire from the ground up. "The
Syndicate" is what Uncle Snap calls it, and since Claudette is dead, it
is up to the kids to keep it going.
The Syndicate is a criminal enterprise that traffics millions of dollars
of drugs throughout the United States. From the Port of Miami to the
border of Canada, The Syndicate is a force to be reckoned with.
Unbeknownst to them, Claudette has been training every one of them for
this moment. She honed in on each of their skills to develop them to the
fullest. Now one of them must step up to become the leader, so they can
take over the Syndicate and run this city.
