A DEA commando team under the command of John "Breacher" Wharthon comes under investigation for pilfering money from a bust on a drug cartel's safe house. Turns out they DID pilfer the money, but someone made off with it before they could retrieve it. As if the investigation and their own suspicions about each other weren't enough, they are now being killed off one by one. Is it the cartel exacting their revenge, or is one of the team members the killer?
