Carla lives and works in Mexicali, Mexico. After her brother is killed, she's forced to run. In the desert of Imperial Valley, she's now trapped in a deadly game between the CIA, government Informants, and the cartel.

Inspired by the "Ripped from the Headlines" true crime story of a rebellious teen and her boyfriend who murdered her single mother in their upscale, gated community in Northern California and were dubbed a modern-day Romeo and Juliet when they ran away and attempted suicide.
