It's October 2018. Vermeulen's partner Tessa Bishonga is set to visit the US/Mexican border in Arizona to do research for an article she's writing. Vermeulen decides to tag along. He's in need of some downtime. And the desert Southwest sounds as good a destination as any.

He doesn't know that a skeleton found in the Sonora desert will draw him into a maelstrom of trouble. The murdered man carried a notebook that contains Vermeulen's phone number. The local authorities investigating the murder believe Vermeulen has connections to the traffickers that brought the man across the border.

To clear his name, Vermeulen has no choice but to delve into dark underbelly of the tragic border policies of the US. Doing so brings Tessa and him face to face with the Border Patrol, white supremacists, and an old foe who's been waiting for six years to get her revenge.
