Synopsis:

Sophia rushes to Las Vegas to find her missing sister, Olivia. What starts as a simple investigation turns into a fight for justice as Sophia uncovers corruption in the city's legal system. Determined to bring to justice Olivia’s killers, Sophia navigates a dangerous world of criminals and powerful figures. In Vegas Vixen, the truth is hidden beneath the glitz and glamor, and Sophia's fight could change the city forever.

Sophia is an imposing figure. In her mid-thirties, she's an African American woman with an athletic build, a testament to the rigorous training that keeps her sharp for the FBI. Her movements are efficient, honed from years on the job. Short, cropped hair usually pulled back in a no-nonsense style frames sharp eyes that miss nothing. Yet, beneath the steely gaze is a hint of vulnerability, a flicker of concern that betrays her current mission. You see, Sophia isn't just a dedicated agent on a case; she's searching for her estranged sister who vanished without a trace in Las Vegas. The weight of their complicated past hangs heavy, but Sophia's driven by a fierce determination – to find her sister, to uncover the truth, and perhaps, to mend a broken bond. She's a formidable force, a brilliant investigator with a heart wrestling between duty and a long-dormant yearning for connection. (LEAD ROLE)

Mia, a late-twenties African American firecracker with a heart of gold. The city streets etched a map of experience on her face, a blend of sass and vulnerability in her dark eyes. Her toned physique, a testament to a life lived on the move. Though the world might label her by the things she does to survive – a hint of desperation clinging to the edges of her designer knock-offs – Mia plays by her own code. Morals are a compass she carries close, even if the path she walks isn't always straight. (LEAD ROLE)

Danielle, a mid-thirties African American LVPD detective, navigates the neon-drenched chaos of Las Vegas with a weary resolve. This Olivia case feels different, like it's tangled up with something darker, something rotten at the core of the department itself. Digging deeper, she uncovers whispers of corruption among her own colleagues Undeterred, she pushes forward, a lone wolf determined to find Olivia’s killer and bring justice, even if it means exposing a truth that could shatter the very foundation of the department she serves. (LEAD ROLE)

Cameron, a mid-thirties open nationality wannabe-kingpin, struts through Las Vegas with a swagger that screams "look at me, but don't touch." Flashy suits and a gold chain thicker than your wrist are his idea of power dressing. His crew, a gaggle of thugs more interested in intimidation than actual muscle, mirrors his gaudy style. He operates with a sense of untouchable arrogance, fueled by his marriage to the city's seemingly unsuspecting mayor. The whispers about his crew's "accidents" and "disappearances" are brushed aside – after all, who would dare mess with the Mayor's husband? Cameron revels in this perceived immunity, a shark circling a feeding frenzy, oblivious to the growing storm brewing beneath the surface.

Captain Stone, a late-fifties, open nationality with a face like a well-worn leather wallet, runs the LVPD like a personal fiefdom. His crew? All handpicked yes-men, happy to follow his every grunt. Cross him? Forget demotion – you'll be stuck with the worst graveyard shifts and paperwork mountains so high you'll need a Sherpa. Stone might not be the brains behind the city's corruption, but he's the muscle, keeping the whole thing ticking over with a steely gaze and a silent threat.

Frank, in his mid-thirties, isn't just another face in Cameron's flashy entourage. He's the loyal lieutenant, the silent enforcer who keeps the wheels of corruption turning. As an open nationality don't be fooled by the nondescript exterior; Frank is every bit as dangerous as Cameron, perhaps even more so.

Carlos, Cameron's other half in the not-so-merry world of corruption, cuts a stark contrast to Frank. As an open nationality male together with Frank, they form a formidable duo, the muscle and the mouthpiece, the enforcer and the charmer, ensuring Cameron's reign over the city's underbelly remains secure.

Devin, an open nationality in his mid 30’s and Sophia's fiance, is a charming contradiction. In his late thirties, he exudes a calm confidence

Imani, the enigmatic Mayor of Las Vegas, cuts a figure of poised authority. Age gracefully defies a pin-point, her beauty a blend of resilience and a hint of something steelier beneath. Her ethnicity, a canvas of her own making, reflects the diverse tapestry of the city she governs.

Lisa, Imani's personal assistant, is a force of youthful ambition barely contained by a prim suit and a tightly coiled bun. In her early twenties, her sharp eyes gleam with an intelligence that belies her years. While she navigates the political world with an air of quiet efficiency, there's a hunger beneath the surface, a yearning for something more than calendar management and fetching coffee.

Peanut, a nickname as dubious as his morals, slithers through the back alleys of Las Vegas like a human oil slick. This late-forties character with a perpetually nervous twitch could be any ethnicity – he blends in with chameleon-like ease. His clothes, a rumpled collection of mismatched patterns, seem to hold the faint scent of desperation and stale cigarettes.

Spencer, mid forties mayoral candidate, embodies a commitment to integrity and justice.

Salvatore, a stereotypical cartel leader, is poised to relocate his operation to Las Vegas.

News Anchor, open race and gender someone in their mid thirties.

Director Ferguson, an authority figure of undisclosed nationality, supervises Sophia.

Olivia Sophia’s estranged sister with a dark past.
