The Razor Contract: No Saints, No Devils

Neo-Noir Drama meets Vigilante Thriller

When Sersha Beck hacked her billionaire father’s accounts and disappeared under a fake name, she never expected to team up with Daxx Kane — a brooding scuba instructor with a lethal past.

Together they operate in the gray zone of justice: taking contracts from the corrupt to eliminate their enemies, only to sometimes deliver a different kind of mercy by faking deaths and creating new identities for those they deem worthy.

As they walk the razor’s edge between vengeance and redemption, they are forced to confront the unsettling truth that there are no saints, no devils — only people doing what people can.

These same characters also create music together as Kane & Beck Thunder.

To get to know the two main characters, start with these first two songs:
