Official synopsis Publisher
Meet the King family, where no secret is safe and too much money is never enough.
Learning the family business is a tradition as old as time. For most families, those businesses are legal enterprises, but the Kings are knee-deep in the boardroom, politics, and the streets.
Fraternal twins Khalid and Khalia are as opposite as night and day. Khalia is the main enforcer for the family, a true gangstress. She is content with dropping bodies first and asking questions later, until she crosses paths with someone who makes her second-guess everything.
Khalid has political aspirations. He is running for the U.S. Senate, with plans to push the family’s drugs to the high-ranking members of that governing body. All that changes when a deadly incident occurs at one of his campaign events.
Keon is the hothead of the family. With four kids and just as many baby mamas, he is never without his share of drama. Still, he manages to balance it all until a devastating family secret changes everything for him.
Kenya is the youngest of the siblings. Fresh out of high school, she is the only one who wasn’t destined for the drug game. But when Khalid is forced to take a back seat, it is left to her to keep their political connections satisfied.
Dutchess, the powerful matriarch of the family, craves money and power. Her husband, Kelvin, would much rather run the lucrative chain of King Funeral Homes and focus on a legitimate empire. Will their differences force them apart?
