Desperate for work, after his father is gunned down by a brutal Mexican cartel, Houston real estate developer Matt Nelson is left holding the bag when a master manipulator scams millions and vanishes without a trace. There is public outrage, when no one is ever brought to justice. Matt becomes a scapegoat and is indicted on several trumped-up charges.

Matt and brother John are hired by a family patriarch to root out the nefarious swindler. Their wild pursuit takes them from singles bars in Brooklyn to the ski slopes of Vermont to mountains of Utah. Their success will be rewarded by a special favor only the patriarch can grant.

Matt’s trial is imminent. Will he cop a plea or face the whims of a fickle jury? Can anything save him at the eleventh hour?
