Parker is a trained and seasoned military and was in her mission when she receives a devastating news of her father's passing, due to a mining accident. She hurries back. She finds what seems like a suicide note from her father, along with the responsibility of taking over Maria's, a bar. 

However, she finds that the facts about her father's passing don't add up. Her father, a former Green Beret, supposedly caused a mining accident by losing the pin to a grenade. She delves into the circumstances surrounding the death, her instincts telling her that the accident was anything but. Her investigation leads her to the mine, where she uncovers a web of deceit and danger.

Parker's suspicions are confirmed when she discovers Elvis's involvement in a dark web arms dealing operation, linked to her father's mine. Elvis is the brother of the town's sheriff. Reuniting with Jesse, her ex and the town's sheriff, Parker learns that the corruption runs deeper than she imagined, entangling Jesse's family, including his senator father, Ezekiel, in the sinister scheme.

After the funeral, she finds that the bar is set ablaze, and she herself under arrest. Jesse uncovers the truth about Elvis's use of the mine for smuggling weapons, a scheme that funded Ezekiel's political campaign. When Harry discovered the truth, they silenced him.

With Ezekiel ordering her silenced, Parker makes a daring escape from custody, seeking refuge with her friends Mike and his mother. Recovering in secret, Parker gathers allies to confront the Swann family.

As the tension mounts, a mercenary named Ghost adds to the chaos, pressuring the Swanns over a failed arms deal. Parker confronts Ezekiel at their compound, uncovering shocking truths before a dramatic confrontation ensues.

Will she uncover the real truth behind her father's death?
