There are those that more often than you think, without choice or design, will wake to your average day only to be led unwittingly through a world of drugs, death and organised crime and come out the other side twenty-four hours later breathing and grateful to see another sunrise.
Casey was more often than he would like a criminal by circumstance. Not by choice. He will cross the line, hell, he will skip across it... but only if you make him. Casey wakes to a call from Jesse, a long-lost friend who has had a car accident. Innocent enough you would think. After picking her up, he discovers she is more trouble than she knows. Had she known what she was doing Casey would have ditched her and run, instead of trying to protect her.
Her drug-dealing ex-husband is chasing her up the coast, only for him to become the target and intended victim of a crew of bikies as they try to take his drug distributorship and his life. Each piece of the puzzle falls into place as to why Jesse, an international fitness star is the target being pursued by two other interested parties, desperate to reclaim 100 kg of cocaine, 50 kg of marijuana, and 4.8 million in cash.
Unknown to her it was all stashed in the back seat of the car, in which she is secretly and spontaneously leaving her cheating, drug-dealing husband. Getting away from someone like that though is not that easy when you have his entire stash with you. Without realizing the storm that is rapidly catching up with her, Jesse calls Casey who has the wisdom to find out what he is up against, and then waits for the fight to come to him after almost, and ironically, beating to death the brother of the drug kingpin.
Factors evolve which eventually require lethal action, as Casey dodges bikies and goon squads while trying to keep his hands clean and plan what is, for now, his and her freedom. It is ultimately for their right to life. Underestimation can be a deadly weapon.
