When Peter Pluto shows up at private investigator Noah Braddock's apartment asking him to look for his missing younger brother, Linc, Noah is reluctant to take the case. After all, the last time he got involved in a disappearance case, his best friend, Carter, was shot and two other people died. However, he does agree and as the investigation unfolds, Noah realizes there's a lot more to Linc than academia - unless your average undergraduate also happens to have skinheads beating down his door and a cache of semi-automatic guns stored in his apartment. Noah discovers that Linc stole some money from a white supremacist group. The skinheads will stop at nothing to find Linc - and when Noah wakes up at the bottom of a canyon, beaten and bruised, with Peter Pluto's corpse lying next to him, he realizes he's next on their list.
