Can one person convince the people of Fort Christian to find a way to reduce officer-involved shootings? After work, T.K. Jefferson mentors kids at the Fort Christian Boy's Club who want to learn to play basketball. He seeks redemption for his own failure to win the college national championship years before. He mentors a young player, not unlike himself, Deshaun Bush, whose team has a real chance of going all the way. However, T.K. sees that chance snuffed out in an officer involved shooting that takes Deshaun's life. This incident sends T. K. on a journey to understand why Deshaun died, why his tale is sadly not unique, and finally on a mission to ensure it can never happen again in Fort Christian. But as T.K. begins to look for alternatives to the status quo, he finds the thoughts of those who most directly feel the loss of Deshaun are not shared by those responsible for that loss. As T.K. raises questions publicly, he finds that even those he thought to be his friends seek ways to undermine his efforts and put T.K. and his wife, Sina, in danger. And through the intimidation, can T.K. convince a city that everyone must take responsibility for each other and heal the divisions that have existed for more than a century?
