No good deed goes unpunished.

When ex-Special Forces Captain Orlando Black stumbles upon a would-be mugging behind a San Antonio gas station, his fighting instincts kick in. Too bad the guy he saves doesn’t want his help—and to make matters worse, he’s unwittingly waded into an undercover investigation headed by the DEA.

The Feds aren’t impressed with Black’s heroism. They slap him with an ultimatum: work with them on their top-secret case, or go to jail for obstruction. Roped into investigating a shadowy underground fighting ring, Black quickly finds himself embroiled in a deadly operation that transport him on a perilous journey from dusty Texan towns to the remote mountains and canyons of Mexico.

Going toe-to-toe with skilled fighters, bloodthirsty cartel bosses, and even an old US army tank, Black must struggle for survival while deep in hostile territory. If his cover is blown, he’s a dead man. Can he stay alive long enough to blow the lid on this illegal fighting ring? Or has he signed his death warrant?
