Description
Fred Daniels, a black man, is randomly picked up by the police after a brutal murder in a Chicago suburb.
Taken to the local precinct, he is tortured — until he confesses to a crime he didn’t commit. But when he sees his chance, Fred Daniels, makes a run for it.
With the world now against him, there is only one place left to hide: Underground.
Taking residence in the sewers below the streets of Chicago, Fred’s new vantage point takes him on a journey through America’s unjust, and inhumane underbelly.
