DEA Agent Kurt Rawlings has made a lot of enemies in his successful career, sending hundreds of criminals to prison. But now he's the one in captivity, snatched in El Paso by assassins but taken and smuggled into Mexico by a cartel that wants him alive—for now. Hoping to survive and reunite with his family, he needs to escape before his usefulness expires.
The cartel's plans for him are more than a simple ransom. But whoever hired his abductors in the first place still wants him dead, and their reach is long. While he seeks a way out, his best chance to stay alive is to find out what the cartel wants with him, and who means to kill him.
Rawlings knows what happens to agents like him—and his time is almost up. One thing is for sure. His enemies have picked on the wrong guy to mess with.
