Across the sweeping plains to the rugged wilderness comes an unforgettable tale of heroism, friendship, and survival. Two years earlier, Ryan, a bright-eyed and innocent farm boy, met and deeply befriended Lila, Jeff, and Hannah, a family of siblings, while on an unlikely vacation to the mountains of Breckenridge, Colorado.
Now, Ryan is thrust into the adventure of a lifetime when he gets a visit from a stranger named Sam, a private investigator, who explains that his old friends were kidnapped by vicious Mexican drug lords and are in grave danger, and invites him to be a part of a daring rescue mission to go into Mexico and save them. Together he and Sam make their way down to Colorado Springs and rendezvous with Sam’s scratchy, tech-savvy, ex-NSA buddy, Felix. Amidst several weeks of Felix’s intense training and preparation, they all work feverishly to determine Lila, Jeff, and Hannah’s exact location, and to figure out how to bring justice to their enemies, hoping they don’t get wise to their plan first.
A close call one night nearly compromises them, while drawing the attention of United States Marshal Rick Stratford, who will stop at nothing to ensure their safety, even at the expense of the mission. While Lila, Jeff, and Hannah desperately struggle to survive, and with Marshal Stratford and the scheming drug lords’ henchmen now closing in at every turn, Ryan is fueled by his longing to rekindle his old friendship with them as he makes for the Mexican border. What he encounters will put his commitment and courage to the ultimate test, and take his faith to a level he’d never imagined, forever changing him.
