PlotA small-town sheriff named Ray Dolezal stumbles upon a dead body in the desert with a suitcase containing $500,000. Assuming the identity of the deceased, he delves into a dangerous investigation to uncover the source of the money and the reason for the man's death. His quest leads him into a world of deceit and betrayal, as he finds himself in deep with federal agents, arms dealers, and shadowy conspiracies. Each step he takes brings him closer to uncovering the truth but also places him deeper into peril.
As Ray navigates this treacherous landscape, he encounters key figures who seem to either help or hinder his pursuit of justice. Amidst the escalating tension, Ray must use his wits and resources to stay ahead of those who would rather see him dead than let him unravel their schemes. Trust becomes a rare commodity, and every decision Ray makes could have fatal consequences. His journey is marked by intense confrontations and a race against time as he strives to expose the hidden motives behind the murder and money while ensuring his own survival.
