About
He took the job to rescue a failing plant. He built a second life to protect his family. Only one can survive.
Thirty-year-old Steven Gentry relocates to Oklahoma to revive Texas Engineering Group's troubled North Plant, chasing the future his late father imagined for him. His internal audit exposes fraud, his reforms stick, and his reputation soars inside the company. Publicly, Steven becomes the clean reformer TEG needs.
Privately, he becomes Dallas.
Under the mentorship of Becca-pragmatic, guarded, and fluent in risk-Steven learns the brutal elegance of a cartel-adjacent pipeline that runs from Las Vegas to Houston. Burner phones. Preloaded cars. Silent motels. Five a.m. pushes across West Texas where every mirror is a confession. Each successful run buys safety for the life that matters most: his wife, Macy; their children, Peace and Tyler; and Amber, Macy's wounded sister, who's slowly choosing sobriety and a second chance. Home grows warmer, even as the air outside thins.
As the plant stabilizes and Steven's public star rises, the criminal machine accelerates. A violent initiation resets the pecking order. A rival underestimates him-once. A driver goes dark when it matters most. And Becca's final mission-meant to be a clean exit-turns into a reckoning. When a coastal blast near Galveston draws the attention of FBI Agent Trey Wagner, the neat compartments Steven relied on begin to leak.
Eighteen months. One family. Two lives refusing to stay separate.
Red Money is a character-driven crime thriller that fuses corporate intrigue with high-stakes smuggling logistics and domestic tension. It's about power, loyalty, and the price of legacy: how leadership is built, how secrets calcify, and how far a man will go to secure the people he loves-even if it means becoming the storm that could destroy them.
