Description: Sheriff Ray Owens has settled into a quiet life in the small border town of Sommerton Junction, Arizona, where he deals with minor crimes like the mayor parking illegally or a local resident firing guns at slabs of meat. Once an LAPD officer, Owens left his position after a failed operation left his partner disabled and his team devastated, burdening him with guilt and defeat.
The calm of Sommerton is disrupted when Gabriel Cortez, an international drug lord and skilled race car driver, escapes FBI custody in Las Vegas. Driving a high-speed Chevrolet Corvette, Cortez kidnaps Agent Ellen Richards and heads toward Mexico at over 200 mph. Despite a police blockade set up in Bullhead City, Arizona, Cortez and his men overpower the officers and clear the path for his escape. Along the way, Cortez uses his driving expertise to disable SWAT vehicles en route to Sommerton Junction. Determined to uncover how Cortez managed to escape so easily, FBI Agent John Bannister orders a financial background check on all involved agents.
In the early morning hours, Sheriff Owens sends his deputies, Jerry Bailey and Sarah Torrance, to investigate the disappearance of a local farmer, Parsons. They discover Parsons murdered and follow tire tracks to Cortez’s henchman, Thomas Burrell, and his mercenaries, who are setting up a mobile assault bridge at the U.S.-Mexico border. A shootout ensues, resulting in Deputy Bailey’s death. Owens intervenes, rescuing his officers and returning to the precinct to prepare for the battle ahead.
