Gabriel Sandalini is an undercover police officer who has worked hard to infiltrate the Botelli crime family and he knows he's got to be close to being able to bring them down. After a chance encounter in a club and the realization he might be falling for another drug lord's right hand, Miguel Ortega, he knows he needs to focus on the task at hand.
