Driven

The victim of a traumatic childhood event, Angela Harwell's life is forever changed. As she grows up, she trains relentlessly and becomes a Domestic Violence Detective for the Memphis Police Department. A disturbing case of abuse puts Harwell on the trail of Tyrone "T-Bone" Reed, the ruthless head of a powerful gang called The Family. Rich, smart and connected, the cunning gangster proves no easy target. A heartbreaking night of bloodshed, however, turns things personal for Harwell. Having lost everything she cares about, she becomes driven by revenge, vowing to crush Tyrone and The Family. She is clearly outnumbered, but sometimes help comes from damndest places.
