100 Bullets Loyalität hat ihren Preis. Der eskalierende Konflikt zwischen dem Trust und dessen ehemaligem Soldaten, Agent Graves, hat bereits Dutzende von Leben gekostet – aber nicht alle Betroffenen sind wirklich tot. Einige Opfer landeten in Gefängnissen, sowohl physischen wie psychischen. Sie sehen die Tage verstreichen, während ihre Wunden langsam heilen. Aber die Fronten des düsteren Schlachtfelds verschieben sich zusehends, und einige dieser Gefangenen erkennen, dass, obwohl sie von Wänden aus Stahlbeton oder Mauern der Sucht umgeben sind, der Krieg keineswegs vor der Tür bleibt. Genauso wenig wie Kugeln, die niemand zurückverfolgen kann.
