Doing the right thing can be costly. And deadly. It's a dark, drizzly night in Tunica. The parking lot of the Blue Note Casino, partly owned by the corrupt and powerful Jackson brothers, is nearly empty. Kevin and Melissa Hall, a young couple with dreams and a bright future, are headed home after long work shifts when they witness a cold-blooded murder. The killer is none other than Charles Alan Jackson. After they decide to testify-do the right thing-they become the target of Charles Alan's brother, Tommy Lee, who dispatches his hired gunmen to assure the Halls never see the inside of a courtroom. After multiple assassination attempts across several states, it seems that even WitSec, the US Marshals' Witness Security Program, can't hide the couple from the reach of the Jacksons. As options and escape routes dwindle, Bobby Cain and Harper McCoy enter the fray. To give the Halls any chance of realizing their dreams and surviving, Cain and Harper must employ all their military training and the skills learned during their gypsy-like upbringing to wage an all-out war against a transnational cabal that has tentacles into the most secret areas of the US government.
