Teaming up with a determined tribal police officer, Loq must navigate a treacherous landscape of desire, deception, and a rising body count. Together, the pair must outrun a ruthless federal agent and pull his sister from the brink before the trail ends in a slaughter.

Desperate for healing and meaning, father and son journey deep into the wilderness on a quest for peace. But the desert offers no sanctuary. When deadly, unseen forces target them in the wild, their spiritual retreat instantly morphs into a brutal, raw fight for survival.
