"He made a promise to protect a boy… now the cartel wants them both dead."

In the heart of Mexico, a mother and her young son flee for their lives after a deadly secret is uncovered — one that puts them in the crosshairs of a ruthless drug cartel. As they make a desperate dash across the border into the U.S., fate brings them face-to-face with a retired Marine haunted by his own past. When tragedy strikes, he’s left with a dying promise: to get the boy to safety in Chicago. But the cartel won’t stop at anything to reclaim what was stolen — and now, they’re coming north. As bullets fly and loyalties are tested, one man must become a protector not just by duty, but by heart. How far would you go to keep a promise when every mile leads closer to danger?
