The life of U. S. Border Patrol agent Jack Torres is forever changed the night his partner is killed near the border city of Eagle Pass, Texas. Jack’s newfound faith in Christ is shaken to the core as he sets out to break up the gang of smugglers responsible for his friend and mentor’s violent death. His quest leads him to Fort Worth, where he goes undercover in a landscaping company. Jack suspects the company’s manager of colluding with a rogue Border Patrol agent to bring illegal aliens across the border and sell them to companies looking for cheap labor. His lovely young boss, landscape architect Meg St. John, seems innocent of the scheme, having taken the project in the hopes it will lead to a promotion into the design office.But as their relationship deepens, so does the danger surrounding them. Jack struggles with involving Meg in the dangerous world of alien smuggling, but she is the only he can trust.
