Trenton Trent Willobee, a semi-truck driver and resident of Oatman, Arizona, who originally hailed from Macon, Georgia, is recruited by federal agents to assist them with the interdiction of drug cartels, gun runners, human smugglers, and Syrian Islamic terrorists who are pouring over the U.S. border at Tijuana, Mexico. As a former Special Forces Soldier (SFS) and trucker, he is uniquely qualified to collect on the ground intelligence for federal agencies, because one of his trucking routes often takes him to Tijuana. As time passed, his involvement grew well beyond the original scope of his expected involvement. He found himself faced with numerous treacherous and dangerous situations from Tijuana to Chihuahua City, Mexico. Interwoven into the action, adventure, and suspense is an account of the 2016 Presidential Election. With all the danger going on in his life, Trent still finds time for a romantic relationship with, Haylee Harper, a waitress at the Olive Hotel Restaurant and Bar in Oatman. He says he doesnt look for trouble, but doesnt run from it, whether at home or on the road. Since he is a big man, 6'4" and 230 pounds, it would seem that he would be intimidating, but rather, he was often underestimated partially because of his unique southern-western drawl, which often confounded those with whom he had contact.
