Fueled by vengeance and seduced by the sirens of illegal adventure, Sunni masterminds a stunning heist that echoes through the underworld, leaving a trail of dazzled and outwitted men in her wake. As her crime threatens to consume her, Sunni gambles everything on a daring bluff – and wins! Sunni's journey reflects on society at that time and searches out the porous boundaries between legal and illicit.
