It had to be big to put Paterson, New Jersey on the map. And there's folk who would have muttered - if you told them that their unlovable corner of America would be thrust into the spotlight - sign of the end times. Daughter of the aging owner of the Dallas Cowboys - and the well-kept secret to their success - Nina Gill is shocked when her brother inherits the team, leaving her with the Paterson Pork, New Jersey's only Indoor Football League franchise. She vows to take on the NFL and make the Paterson Pork pigskin kings of America. Meanwhile, Nuno DeAngeles - a brilliant criminal mastermind - has gotten himself thrown into Rikers Island prison to commit perhaps the most audacious crime of all time. And now he's on the inside, he has two good reasons to get out. But how does a person of colour go about breaking out of the penal system when the whole of the land of the free is addicted to keeping him in it?
