Lou travels to El Salvador, home of the second highest murder rate in the world, to meet the 18th Street, a ruthless, multi-ethnic, transactional criminal organisation engaged in a bloody war with rival gang MS-13. To find out what motivates the on-going war, Lou realizes he will have to meet their feared and infamous leader, Viejo Lin, and journey to Izalco Prison in Sonsonate, El Salvador, which houses 838 of the country’s most violent 18th Street gang members, including many of its feared inner circle.

Lou arrives in Manila, capital of the Philippines, to visit Bilibid, the world’s largest prison, and to infiltrate the powerful and much feared Commandos gang.

Lou visits in Albuquerque, USA, the largest city in the state of New Mexico, to meet one of the world’s newest and fastest growing prison gangs, the Burqueños, to witness first-hand their violent and secret recruiting process. While there, he discovers how the Burqueños’ power is threatening blood rival TCK, and attempts to score an exclusive interview with Jeff Padilla, the menacing gangster, mafia boss, and supposed shot caller for the Burqueños. However, with The Burqueños strict code of silence, Lou has his work cut out for him.
