In a world where right and wrong are rarely clear, Franklin's Bennies follows Peter Cleary, a mental health counselor working inside a state prison, who is used to helping others navigate their worst decisions-not making dangerous ones of his own. That changes when he agrees to do a seemingly simple favor for Franklin, a charismatic inmate with a hidden past and secrets tied to a long-forgotten fortune. What begins as a quiet act of compassion quickly pulls Peter into a high-stakes world of corruption, hidden agendas, and mounting danger. As powerful forces begin to close in and the situation spirals beyond his control, Peter finds himself caught between his professional ethics, his personal safety, and the growing concern of his wife, Nora, who fears the cost of his involvement may be more than they can survive. With pressure building from all sides-including law enforcement, criminals, and his own conscience-Peter must navigate a dangerous path where trust is fragile, motives are unclear, and every decision carries real consequences. Tense and gripping, Franklin's Bennies is a story about moral ambiguity, loyalty, and the cost of crossing a line you can't uncross. As the stakes rise, one question remains: How far would you go to do the right thing-and what happens when you're no longer sure what that is?
