When a beloved teacher is gunned down in a violent inner-city school, his estranged brother, Karl Thomasson—a former mercenary turned military instructor—steps in to uncover the truth. Disguised as a substitute teacher, Karl enters a classroom ruled by fear, gangs, and corruption, determined to find those responsible.
But what starts as a personal mission quickly escalates into a war against a brutal criminal network embedded within the school’s walls. With students caught in the crossfire and teachers turning a blind eye, Karl brings his combat skills to a place where order has long vanished.
As he gains the trust of the students and unearths a plot far deeper than expected, Karl finds himself facing off against both street-level thugs and powerful figures pulling strings from the shadows. In this battleground of chalkboards and gunfire, education meets retribution.
Tense, gritty, and unflinching, The Substitute 2 transforms a classroom into a war zone—and one man’s grief into a mission of justice.
