Senator Aguirre is dead. Nemesis Anibal wants to get even. The U.S. ambassador won't help. How will JadeAnne get trafficked teen, Lily, across the border? Anibal ambushes them in an attempt to complete their sale to Los Zetas. JadeAnne learns who's behind the trafficking scheme, and they are getting closer with every attack. In a reckless move, JadeAnne puts her friends in danger, and gains new allies. She vows to see Lily home even if she has to walk her across the border. JadeAnne turns to human rights activist Rosi and new friend Dafne, for help and come up with Plan B- border jumping-led by a coyote in Rosi's trafficking rescue network. It's all top secret, until Quint insists on bringing in his old military comrade Nader. Why has he turned up now? At the mouth of an El Paso storm drain, JadeAnne learns the truth, but not before one is dead, two injured and her nemesis is on her tail. Can they out-run or out-gun him in time?
