In a suicide mission during the American Civil War, two soldiers discover gold which they will bury in the roots of a big tree, somewhere deep in the woods. More than a century later, three Federal agents in the same forest are on a mission to bust a drug-manufacturing operation run by the ruthless criminal kingpin, Santiago, and his men; however, an unexpected complication will lead to their suspension. Out of sheer luck, the operatives unearth the hidden treasure while on vacation--and from that point on--trouble ensues, as Santiago along with a duplicitous corrupt agent and his deadly personal assassin, Jewel Panther, will hunt them down, one by one. But, can brute force alone stop the expert and lethal agents?—Nick Riganas
