Kane Mercer walked away from his bloody reputation as the criminal underworld's most feared contract killer three years ago, adopting a solitary life hauling freight across the sun-baked Arizona border. His peaceful anonymity shatters when a ruthless cartel syndicate massacres his employers to seize smuggling corridors, leaving him with a final mission: deliver Tessa Cross, the murdered boss's feisty daughter, safely across state lines.
When the cartel slaps a three-million-dollar bounty on Kane's head, elite mercenaries and rival assassins flood the badlands to collect. Fighting off gunships and sniper teams across desolate salt flats, Kane's deadly lethal instincts roar back to life as Tessa evolves into a formidable combat partner. Kane wades through an ocean of gunfire to dismantle the cartel and build a peaceful life.
