      In just thirty seconds, Margaret Tabaaha's world shatters when her two sons are violently taken from her, leaving her drowning in grief and whiskey after already losing her husband in Afghanistan. When Arthur Nakai receives a desperate call from Margaret during a wake for a fallen Marine brother, he feels compelled to help her. This leads him into the dangerous, multi-billion-dollar oil and gas industry, where he confronts an old enemy, Elias Dayton, who now heads Patriot Security, a firm protecting oil sites from protesters known as the Water Protectors. As Arthur navigates this treacherous landscape, Navajo police chief Jake Bilagody investigates the fraught relationship between the oil company and the Navajo community, while searching for a missing man who may be caught in the conflict. As Arthur uncovers the truth behind the boys' deaths, he faces a haunting decision that could change everything, forcing him to reconcile his past with the harsh realities of the present. The intertwining fates of these characters reveal the complexities of loyalty, justice, and the impact of corporate greed on Native lands.

      The battle is one of wits and cunning, where the strong heart will overcome his enemy. Ex-marine Arthur Nakai spent years as a member of the Shadow Wolves, an ICE tactical unit tasked by the US government to hunt human traffickers and drug smugglers on the US/Mexico border. He put that life of confronting violence in the darker contours of the desert landscape behind him and settled into a quiet existence in New Mexico with his wife, Sharon, a local TV reporter. But when Sharon goes missing after crossing paths with a serial killer who has just added to his list of young victims, Arthur's calm world is shattered. He must return to the darkness of the life he left behind in order to save what matters most to him, and the future he and his wife plan to share together. He can only hope that she is still alive, and that his skills will be enough to find her. So begins the hunt-to find a ruthless killer and save the love of his life.
