Ill-tempered former Navy SEAL turned small town Sheriff Deputy, Jessica (Jessie) Peltier, struggles to maintain her sanity following a horrendous tour of duty in Afghanistan. Her return to a peaceful, civilian life is shattered when forces unknown frame her for killing the son of a Mexican drug lord. Evidence exposing a vast government conspiracy is left at the murder scene. Desperate, the killers abduct Jessie's best friend, Nadine, and sentence her to death unless Jessie embarks on a suicide mission into darkest Mexico to return the evidence. At her wits end, Jessie calls on former Navy SEAL teammate, Nash Garza and her elderly Native American uncle, Daniel Peltier. From their base in a Mexican brothel, Jessie and her team play a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with the ruthless Baja Norte drug cartel, using only aggressive tactics, archaic weapons and their wits. From the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the Baja California desert, they teach a hard lesson to those who oppose them: You picked the wrong patsy.
