Plot Summary
In the sun-drenched town of Santa Paz, a bitter altercation erupts between Commander Rivera, the proud guardian of his community, and a powerful millionaire whose influence stretches far beyond wealth. At the heart of their conflict is a captivating woman, whose presence ignites rivalries, tests loyalties and ultimately drives Rivera to make a reckless wager that places the very future of his town on the line. Just as the tension threatens to consume Santa Paz, Jim Duarte, a drifter with a shadowed past and a strong sense of justice.
