When James Hart learns of his father’s death, he’s forced to return to the one place he’s avoided for years: home.
Located in Florida, Crystal Springs is a place where dreams are born to die. Once back in the rural and stagnant town, James learns that his brother’s crimes have caught up to him. Despite his hesitations, James teams up with a local bartender and hatches a plan to save his brother’s life.
Soon, James finds himself on a whirlwind road trip across the desolate Florida panhandle, trying to outrun an enemy more dangerous than he knows. With bullets in the air and the ghosts of his past haunting him at every turn, James is forced to decide just how much he’s willing to risk to save his family.
