But a blizzard in Detroit and the power outage that comes with it are exactly the cover he needs to pull off the hack that will put him back on top.Then the neighbors come calling.Good Fences introduces Morris Payne, an elite hacker walking the the fine gray line between the virtual and the real in the not-too-distant future.
