When Benjamin Armenta, the leader of the powerful Gulf Cartel, kidnaps songwriter Emilie McKenna, his demands are as unique as the jungle fortress in which Emilie is imprisoned. She's ordered to compose a 'narcocorrido', a folk ballad that will romanticize Armenta as one of the greatest desperados in Mexican history. Allowed to wander the hallways of the castle with only a guitar and a mysterious old priest to keep her company, Emilie must produce the loveliest song these men have ever heard. Or she'll be skinned alive.
As Emilie's music wafts through the jungle, it serves as a siren call to two men who love her: lawman Harold Arestele and Emilie's outlaw husband, Andrew James. They have the power to rescue her, but their long-simmering rivalry could very well compromise Emilie's deliverance and cause the ending of a life-and-death ballad to be rewritten in blood.
