Here’s the set-up:

The year is 1974. Boston’s Jamaica Plain is a neighborhood under siege. The banks have REDLINED the neighborhood, causing the housing market to crash, wiping out local homeowner’s lifetime investments and opening the neighborhood to blockbusters and slumlords. Someone is systematically torching abandoned buildings and the charred body of Sandy Morgan, a dedicated young neighborhood organizer, has been found among the ashes. Why? Who stands to gain?
Sandy Morgan’s boss, Community Organizer and Marine combat veteran, Jedidiah Flynt has sworn to find out and bring those guilty to justice, but to do so, he must wade through a swamp of Asian gangsters, bent politicians and corrupt churchmen.
