Overview

It's a life-and-death struggle for most secret agents on America's borders - in the sinister and seductive world of illegal trafficking, most supply and demand isn't for drugs: it's for chemical goods, weapons and even human beings. When three men attempt to apprehend the elusive criminals behind these illicit trade organizations, they find their lives intertwined in ways they never could have imagined.
