Fairview is bleeding again, and this time, the enemy wears a smile. The Retaliator (Sam Carter) thought he had finally broken the Olympus Syndicate, but the city's corruption has only mutated. Now, a new killer known as Mr Smile is stalking the city, not with a knife or a gun, but with devastating psychological warfare. His victims are found dead by their own hand, leaving behind eerie black smiles and cryptic notes aimed directly at Sam. As Detective Fuller chases the escalating spree of "suicides," The Retaliator is forced to confront the impossible truth: Mr Smile is Elliot, the best friend Sam abandoned years ago. But Elliot's game isn't just about revenge. It's about exposing a secret Sam buried a decade ago-a lie of omission that caused the death of Fuller's family in a fire started by Elliot. Haunted by the memory of the boy he left behind and terrified that his oldest lie will destroy the only true ally he has left, Sam must race to save his friend before Mr Smile tears down everything The Retaliator has built. Because in Fairview, the only thing more dangerous than a vengeful killer is a deadly truth waiting to be told.
