Pearson Reed vanished five years ago in the wake of a robbery gone wrong. Drifting across the nation, living under assumed names, he has eluded authorities and enemies at every turn. But when his cover is threatened after a night of violence, Pearson is forced to reemerge and deal with unresolved issues from his brutal past.

Dangerous men have descended on the city of St. Augustine, Florida, to collect a dead man's hidden fortune — a fortune Pearson knows more about than anyone. What he doesn't know is that he is walking into a trap that will activate the moment he sets foot in town. A trap set by an enemy Pearson never saw coming.
