Starz has also released the synopsis for the upcoming season that speaks about Ghost, his once best friend Tommy and nemesis Kanan. In the season 2 finale, Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson's character was presumed dead after the building fire. But investigators subsequently revealed that someone had managed to escape the fire.

Check out the full synopsis:

Season Three finds James St. Patrick as the owner of new nightclubs, out of the drug game, and in a rekindled relationship with his first love, Angela—the Assistant United States Attorney sworn to bring him to justice. But just as they begin to believe James' past criminal persona of 'Ghost' may finally be behind them, both are forced to face the consequences of running from a life from which no one gets away clean.

James' estranged best friend Tommy has just reunited with his newly returned love, Holly, but he must attempt to not only rebuild Lobos' devastated drug organization, but to kill Ghost—turning brother against brother.

He's on the verge of having everything he's ever wanted, but will this new phase of James St. Patrick's life end before it begins with old sins and the specter of 'Ghost' coming back to haunt him? Be careful what you wish for.

In the season 3 finale, James decided to uncomplicated his life and returned to his first love Angela by confessing to her that "Ghost was dead". But his actions in the past may not let him lead a happy as life yet.

The theme of the season, according to showrunner Courtney Kemp is, "be careful what you wish for". Tommy is back in action and this time he is out with a vengeance as he learns that James sent Holly out of town and lied to him.

Hence, it seems like every prime character will embark on a mission to "kill Ghost", which could push the former drug lord to get back to business. But for him, it will be a choice between love – Angela – and hate – Tommy and Kanan.

Power season 3 will premiere on 17 July on Starz.
