The weather had been perfect, ski conditions ideal, and accommodations first-rate. Bill and Angie Phillips' week-long vacation at Colorado's Breckenridge Resort could not have gone better. Until their final day.The couple typically skied separate trails on their last run each afternoon. Angie would traverse the easier blue slopes, while Bill attempted a more challenging black run. When they finished up, the two would meet back at their condo. On their last day at the resort, Bill fails to return from his final ski run. Angie alerts the Breckenridge patrol team, which immediately launches a search and rescue operation to find him. They are unsuccessful. Two follow-up missions end the same way. Then Angie makes a startling discovery that sends the mystery in a whole new direction. Bill Phillips is no longer a missing skier, but rather a missing person and the subject of an investigation that will be led by Summit County Detective Tom Sherman. Sherman's first task is to determine if his missing person was abducted or disappeared on his own. It's a question that goes unanswered for several days before DEA agents uncover an unexpected lead. They learn that Bill is being held captive by a key operative in a Mexican drug cartel and is scheduled to be transferred to Mexico at any moment.It's a race against the clock as Sherman works with agents from both the FBI and DEA to figure out where Bill is being held and how to secure his release before he is relocated
