At age forty, the great boxer Max Le Corre was enjoying a renaissance, back at the top of the ticket after a long absence. When he wasn't in the ring, he worked as a driver for the mayor, Quentin Le Bars. Above all, he was a father to Laura, his twenty-year-old daughter who recently returned home after trying her hand at modeling.

Quentin had helped Max when he was down on his luck, a seemingly washed-up fighter, and now Max hoped he would help Laura find her bearings in town. But Laura's meeting with Quentin reveals a darker side to the politician, setting in motion a chain of events that will pit Max against his benefactor.
