The West Texas desert can be murder on a marriage. When Tru Marcus and a twelve year old boy in her care are kidnapped by rogue members of a Mexican drug cartel, it's up to her husband and the local Sheriff to get them back. A horseback chase through the night leads them through the Chihuahuan Desert, a hidden mountain camp inside Mexico and even further into the Mayan ruins of the Yucatan Penisula. Chris Marcus finds that he and his wife are caught in the middle of an ugly game being played by a corrupt deputy and a suave, but very angry drug lord, Jorge Carrizo. Circumstances force an unlikely alliance with Carrizo's huge, well educated Russian bodyguard. They soon learn that a wealthy man's game board can cross half a continent and erase all ethical lines with a single phone call. Carrizo plays a deadly game of chess.
