Professional caddy Andy Marsh is fired by his pro before the San Diego event. When his friend Tim is murdered that night, he inherits the responsibility to return an undocumented Mexican teen to her family two states away.
How is he to accomplish his friend's dying wish? He's a caddy, not a bodyguard. The thugs who send him to the hospital don't care--they just want the girl. Tim's beautiful sister, the social worker, is disappointed in Andy, and blames him when things go awry.
If that's not enough, the day before Andy's chance to loop for the world's number two professional, he's left for dead.
What chance does Andy have--a caddy among professional killers?
