Boat captain Denton Stedman is an Irish Special Forces vet trying to help the son of his black combat buddy, Buck Broadway, who was recently killed in a car crash. He takes on the rebellious teenager, Ransom, as a mate for a mysterious yacht delivery from Newport to the Bahamas, unaware the Dawn Light is carrying a lethal secret in her belly.
Victoria Gatlin is an extreme sports adventuress in Massachusetts who's conducting an amateur investigation into a major pharmaceutical company she believes is corrupt and possibly criminal. The lives of Dent, Victoria, and Ransom are about to intersect in a way that could get them all killed.
