Luke’s life of crime started in juvenile detention, at age 15. By 21 he was kicked out of the Navy with dishonorable discharge. After serving time in military prison for committing fraud against the U.S. Government, Luke returns to his hometown of El Paso and takes the only job he’s qualified for: personal security detail to gang leader of the infamous El Paso Tangos.

A chance tarot reading from a Mexican bruja prompts Luke to reconsider his past, and tame his wild horses, and claim the life he was meant for.
