Synopsis: A Day of Reckoning

Twenty-three year old Karrie Jensen is found dead from strangulation in her vehicle by someone walking past a former driving range now turned into a field for hay. Town police know her because she had only been in the station two days before begging them to do something about her ex-boyfriend Juan Pedraza. Karrie has left behind two small children, Scotty Jensen-Pedraza, 5, and Sergio Jensen-Padraza, 4.
Knowing that Juan was somehow involved in this, Karrie's mother Carla, and her sister, Abby, get information about his family and has all who were illeageal deported back to Mexico. It also resulted in two businesses who hired them to be shut down, (a saw mill was found to have over a dozen illeagals).

A year and a half after the death of her daughter, Karrie, Carla Simpson finds her sister's body crumpled up in the livingroom floor, a pool of blood around her head. Abby Clarke was to have taken Carla to school to pick the boys up from soccer practice. When she discovers that they were taken from the school and no one knows where they are, Carla believes her worst fear has come true, Juan, or someone connected to him not only killed Abby but has taken her grandsons. Carla calls on her two younger brothers, Matthew and Doug Jensen to help search for them. Together, they plan to go to Mexico, the last known place was Cabo San Lucas, at least, that's what Juan told them where he was from.
After her brothers were arrested by the Mexican police because it was thought Matthew and Doug were smuggling drugs, and Carla thinks they probably did try. Now she has to get them out to help her.

Carla finds Scotty and Sergio in a small village ninety miles miles away from Cabo San Lucas, living in unhelathy conditions, dirty and starved. She goes back to Cabo to the hotel she and her brothers are staying, they plan to take them in the early hours of the morning. When they arrive in the village, Scotty and Sergio have been moved by Juan and in their place are Juan's gang they are taken captive, bound, blinded, and gagged. They take the trio to Juan. They are thrown into the same place his children are, in a bedroom. He tells them they will all die and they should say good bye to the boys.
Juan and his buddies go to the room to get Carla and her brothers and discover they are gone and so are the boys.

They are spotted and gun fire is heard througout the village as they are chased. They find a temporary hiding spot and try to come up with a solution on getting out of there and not getting killed. One by one, Carla and her brothers manage to outwit the persurers only to have Juan kill the older brother Matthew when he shoots him. Carla is faced with Juan holding a pistol at young Sergio's head. Doug comes from behind and knocks the pistol from Juan's hand and begins to beat him senseless. Carla calls Doug off of Juan, she has the pistol and has it aimed at Juan.

Juan is extradited back to Arkansas where he stands trial for the murder of Karrie Jensen and sentenced to life(?) (or deported? Found guilty of killing Matthew and goes back to Mexico for trial, also found guilty sentence?) Carla and her grandsons are back in small town Arkanasas and on the road to helping heal each other's pain.
