    • Sam, a former heist mastermind, is trying to live a quiet retired life with his young daughter and wife. When the new leader of his old crew, Luther, is arrested by a shadow government agency and forced into retrieving a mysterious hard drive, he knows that Sam is the only one who can help him. In a world of rising stakes, government conspiracies, and double and triple crosses - the most likely betrayals come from within. The unlikely foursome of thieves rounded out by the old-timer wheelman and the young gun - find themselves immersed in a series of international heists where one wrong move means certain doom. Nothing is as it seems and even Sam's wife is in on the double cross, leading a female crew of "housewives" carefully placed among the levers of power. The deep-cover agency, with the code name of "Mantis", is designed to infiltrate the beds, homes, and marriages of the unsuspecting men and women closest to information and power. Everyone tries to stay ahead of the game while only a select few even know the rules.
