Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesnโ€™t know all the details of his brotherโ€™s nefarious dealings, and heโ€™s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larryโ€™s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
