The informants featured in the series include a 75-year-old grandmother who became involved in transporting drugs for a companion, a software engineer whose ties to a Mexican cartel provide access to its activities, and a professional informant who has spent years living a dangerous double life. Another informant is targeted by a ruthless kingpin who has placed a reward on their head. These informants risk their lives while working undercover for various personal reasons, including fear, greed, revenge, and love.
