CriticsCritics: 87
AudienceAudience: 7.8

An idealistic FBI agent joins a covert government task force targeting powerful drug-cartel leaders along the U.S.-Mexico border. As the mission grows more secretive and ruthless, she is forced to confront shifting loyalties, escalating violence, and the blurred line between justice and vengeance.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you prefer grim, slow-burning crime thrillers with realistic action and moral ambiguity; Not for you if you want fast pacing, likable heroes, or clear answers.
