After graduating from high school, John "Dre" Dodson finds his future looming before him. He is forced to make a number of decisions that will change his life, one of them being attending college or grinding on the mean Eastside streets of Detroit. The sudden reality of his poverty-stricken circumstances makes him painfully aware of the fortunes that can be made if he embarks on the career path of a hustler. Deciding that he wants to be a baller, Dre meets and forms an alliance with an older, very beautiful female named Destiny. Unbeknownst to him, she has a secret and motive that draws her to him, and assists him in making all of his plans a reality. Dre and his closest friends will create a clique called the Eastside Syndicate and set a hustle in motion like Detroit has never seen. No one else in the city can compete with the murder and muscle game that they release upon the streets. However, when Dre falls in love and finds himself at odds with Destiny, the beautiful temptress who helped make his dreams come true will stop at nothing to bring Dre and the organization that he created to its knees. Dre has everything a hustler could ever want. Only when the tide turns, does he quickly realize the dream life he once lived is no more than a nightmare in disguise.
