After the arrest of his brother in California, the head of a Mexican Drug Cartel kidnaps the administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration and holds him hostage in a remote area of Northern Mexico. Tom Blaine, acting upon information from a Cooperating Individual (CI), takes a covert special operations team into Mexico to free the administrator and return him to the United States. Along with his team, Tom must act quickly to avoid the Drug Cartel's cutthroat army of pistol Eros (corrupt federales), adverse weather and the head DEA's own internal affairs out to end Tom's career.
