And behind every Kingpin, there is a legion of ruthless lieutenants, soldiers and rivals dying to take his place.

The series kicks off with four two-hour events, each revealing the meteoric rise of one of the most famous Kingpins in crime history. In gripping, bloody detail, we'll watch as each begins as an unknown, low-level thug, only to transform themselves into a world-famous king of crime.
