Cabo San Lucas was where Preston Rogers had found home. After twenty-three years of protecting presidents and heads of state, the ex-Secret Service agent had found retirement and contentment in Cabo San Lucas. Now he made as good a living as he needed or wanted, hustling well-heeled tourists on Cabo's famed golf courses and occasional work from US-based attorneys, following cheating husbands while they partied in Cabo. Things were easy, uncomplicated, and perfect. Right up to the moment, a high-profile American is assassinated in Cabo, and Preston is set up to take the fall.

His face is now being plastered on every TV and newspaper in the world. The Mexican federales have orders to kill on sight. And the American FBI won't hesitate if given the chance. His only choices were to run off to South America and hide or find why someone chose to destroy his life and everything he loves.
