Odd Man Out
When streetwise con man Darnell Sims is busted for a traffic violation, he has no idea how much his life is about to change. Already a fugitive, Darnell is back on the radar of hard-nosed ATF agent Max Bradford.
On their way out of a jailhouse pickup, Max and Darnell are run off the road by a gang headed by drug lord Raoul Garcia, sending Max to the hospital and Darnell into hiding. Raoul is holding a long grudge, after a stash of cash that Darnell and others stole from him three years ago. Max has questions about the accident—who set him up and why?—but suspects Darnell is holding back. It’s a race to save anyone who might have answers when Raoul starts killing them off one by one.
But with all that missing money out there, no one is as they appear. There’s Armando Hernandez, a vicious killer known as The Vulture; hired thugs Billy Poe and Lester Long; and, Alondra Ayala, a young woman with a somewhat ulterior motive for getting to know Max. With everyone coming out of the woodwork, Max and Darnell have to decide: who are the bad guys and who are the really bad guys?
The cop and the con work out their differences while navigating the mean streets of South Florida for the killers. Still, they’re on opposite sides of the law. Can they trust each other?
