Atlanta, 1975. The streets are changing?but Gold Foot refuses to be left behind. At fifty years old, Gold Foot is an old-school hustler who has survived decades in a world where reputation means everything and one bad decision can cost a man his freedom?or his life. The damaged foot that gave him his name still carries a heavy gold chain, a reminder of the bullet that nearly ended his career years earlier. � Gold Foot believes in discipline: keep the money straight, keep the operation small, stay ahead of the police, and never let emotion interfere with business. But Atlanta is changing around him. Younger players like the flashy Silk are challenging the old rules, cocaine money is reshaping the streets, and increased police pressure threatens the world Gold Foot spent decades learning to control.
