Nickel Plated

Nickel, a resilient survivor raised in abusive foster homes, navigates a gritty life as a warrior rather than a civilian. He supports himself through blackmail, drug dealing, and private investigation, yet offers his help for free to children in need. When high school student Arrow believes her sister Shelby has been kidnapped, Nickel dives into a dangerous search, uncovering a dark world of child trafficking and moral depravity. As he hunts for Shelby, he realizes that the stakes are not just finding her, but also ensuring his own survival.
