What he doesn’t need is Tino Perez, a gutsy twelve-year-old Mexican boy in search of his missing—and undocumented—mother. But Payne’s ex-wife, an L.A.P.D. detective he still loves, makes him a deal: help the boy or go to jail. Soon Payne is following Tino into the dark side of the American dream. From bloody Mexicali to the bullet-ridden San Joaquin Valley, Payne will be swept into the dark current of illegal immigration, human trafficking, and sexual slavery—navigating the twisted border between justice and revenge.
