Hostage negotiator Carrington Reed is called to the scene when reports come in that fifteen hostages are being held by the Kendrix brothers in an abandoned house in south Texas. When she arrives on site, Carrington quickly learns that the brothers are armed and refuse to release their victims, a group of undocumented immigrants, until the local police identify their fathers murderer.
Working closely with Levi Ehrlich, a handsome investigative reporter who has covered some of Carringtons negotiations in the past, she finds herself being undeniably drawn to him. Carrington digs deeper into the death of the Kendrixes father and begins to notice that some details surrounding his death arent adding up.
As Carrington investigates the brothers claims and tries to piece together their motive for taking innocent people captive, it soon becomes clear that they are trying to hide something and that revenge for their fathers death may not be what theyre really bargaining for after all. To protect the hostages and ensure the brothers dont carry out the rest of their sinister plot, Carrington must get to the bottom of one familys secret and the truth theyre trying so hard to hide before time runs out.
