After nearly a decade away, John returns to Eastern North Carolina to visit Jason, his best friend from his time in the Marines. A scuffle in a nightclub earns him the attention of Jeff Davis, a small-time crime boss who is trying to legitimize his income streams. To do so, he needs to eliminate four of his associates in the criminal underworld. Using every asset at his disposal, he digs up John's past and finds the proper tool to motivate him. He gives John a choice: take care of his hit list, or one of the men on the list will be tasked with killing Stephanie Sweeney, John's crush for half of his twenties. Coming from the aviation combat support side of the Marines, John has never seen actual combat, much less directly killed anyone, but he doesn't want Stephanie's death on his conscience. Knowing that Davis has eyes and ears on the police, John knows he has no real options other than to do the job and get out of town before the first body gets cold. He has no combat experience, but what he does have is a twelve-gauge shotgun and a sense of resourcefulness that would make MacGyver jealous.
