“Power Book II: Ghost” Season 4 follows Tariq and Brayden looking for a way back in after new alliances have been formed with each faction. But Brayden starts flirting with a new, reckless lifestyle, leaving Tariq to wonder if
there really is room for two at the top.

With Monet left for dead, Davis facing potential disbarment, and Effie looking to secure her future at Stanford, everyone’s on their own.
