Denver journalist, Natalie Benoit, travels to Mexico for a seminar to get away from the office. Natalie is horrified as the bus she is traveling on is stopped and the passengers are brutally killed one by one; yet, for some reason, Natalie is spared only to be taken to a compound and chained to a wall. Alone and desperate, Natalie refuses to give up, let alone leave anyone behind, regardless if they are a criminal or not (and she is sure the man in the cell is a criminal of some sort). All Natalie knows is that the man in the cell next to her has suffered enough at the hands of her kidnappers. Gathering her wits and courage, Natalie takes advantage of the lax security and finds a way to free them both with out knowing the man she is rescuing is a US Marshall.

Deputy US Marshal Zach McBride is betrayed to a very angry Mexican drug cartel that thinks Zach has stolen a shipment of drugs which is why he is chained to a wall, beaten beyond recognition, and tortured to an inch of his life. If this bloodthirsty Mexican Cartel finds out that they are holding a US Marshal, Zach is as good as dead. Zach knows his captors have a woman prisoner next to him, which is unfortunate since these men do not treat women well. All Zach can do is attempt to protect her as much as possible with out blowing his cover. To Zach's surprise, the woman is more resourceful than he thought since she somehow finds a way to escape and free them both from a certain death giving Zach an opportunity to use his skills to get them through the desert to safety before the enemy catches up to them.
