Wyatt, a professional thief living off the grid, is recruited by his brother for one last job. Their target: an armored car traveling down a desolate stretch of California highway.

The cult claims that it is their solemn duty to save the world by means of human sacrifice. Will Wyatt protect the boy who has come into his charge? Or will he be swayed by the cult’s increasingly convincing claims that the end of the world is fast approaching?

After a simple armored car heist turns into something much more sinister and dangerous for brothers Wyatt and Jasper, things go from bad to worse for the ex-cons.

In another action-packed and bloody issue, both brothers get separate peeks into why the Sons of the Salton Sea exist and why they’re going to such extreme lengths to get back what the brothers stole.
