It began as a stroke of incredible luck for two United States Border Patrol agents, Bob Logan and Ernie Wyatt. Partners and pals who enjoyed good whiskey and bad women. They accidentally discover a jeep buried in the Texas desert for over 20 years with $850,000 in cash in a metal container; a second metal container that holds a fishing rod and a high powered rifle. And finally a skeleton of a man in the drivers seat. They find his wallet with only a Texas drivers license and a piece of paper with a phone number and a Washington, D.C. area code. It should have been their ticket to a first class life if they played it "smart". If they played it "stupid" they could wind up like the skeleton in the jeep. Logan wants to take the money and run; Wyatt wants to at least try and find out who is the skeleton in the jeep. What was in store for both of them is something much more terrifying. A chilling drama of friendship, intrigue and murder.
