Two worlds collide when the corruption and crime of one of Mexico's most violent cartels spreads over the border. A sophomore college student has gone missing while on spring break in Mexico. Private Investigator Catherine James is investigating but when the evidence begins to point to a violent gang affiliated with the cartel, Catherine soon finds herself a target.

Meanwhile, Yesenia Flores is an adventurous young woman from Mexico who seeks a better life across the border in the U.S., but quickly becomes entangled in a web of lies designed to trap her into modern day slavery by the same crime association Catherine faces in Mexico. A witness to a murder, Yesenia soon finds herself running for her life.
