Small-town police are caught in the crossfire of an all-gunsblazin­g assassinat­ion attempt in this action thriller.

Wily con artist Teddy Murretto (Frank Grillo) knows hitman Bob Viddick (Gerard Butler) is on his trail.

Travelling through the Nevada desert, Teddy hatches a hare-brained plan to avoid an early grave. He attracts the attention of rookie officer Valerie Young (Alexis Louder) to secure a cosy holding cell at the local police station.

The scheme backfires when Viddick is placed in detention in an adjacent cell, within touching distance of his prey.

A bad situation deteriorat­es with the arrival of rival assassin Anthony Lamb (Toby Huss), who intends to kill Teddy and everyone inside the station.

As bullets fly and the body count rises, officer Young contemplat­es an unlikely alliance with Teddy and Viddick to outwit and overpower Lamb.
