Having just survived an attack on his life Evan Smoak isn't interested in a new mission. But one finds him anyway. Aragon Urrea is a major drug-dealing kingpin in South Texas. But he's also a local patron - providing legitimate employment, and a future to a people with little hope. However, for all his money and power, when a vicious cartel kidnaps his daughter he is helpless. Not only must Evan break into the fortress of a heavily armed, deeply paranoid cartel leader - he must decide if he should help a very bad man, no matter how just the cause.
