Melanie Starks and her seventeen-year-old son Charlie have been running one con job after another for as long as she can remember. But now she's getting sick of that life - concerned that Charlie enjoys being a thief just a bit too much.
Then Jared Barnett reappears in her life. Released from prison after serving five years of a life sentence for murder, and set free on a technicality that by no means proves his innocence, Jared now exhibits a dangerous edge . . .
He claims he has the perfect plan for a bank robbery - with help from Melanie and Charlie. Determined this will be her last 'job' ever, Melanie agrees. But things go terribly wrong . . . Seconds after Jared and Charlie enter the bank there's gunfire. Both men run out, empty-handed, yelling at Melanie to drive.
Refusing to reveal what happened in those few desperate moments, the men have formed a terrifying silent bond.
A police chase forces the trio to take refuge in a remote cabin and later, when Melanie learns that six people were shot dead that day in the bank, she is left to wonder who did what. Who lost control? Why did things turn so bad so quickly?
Only one thing is clear: A line has been crossed. Suddenly there's not turning back, and there is nothing left to lose.
