Rick Waters is fresh off of solving a kidnapping case involving a famous guitar and ready to take a long break from work. He and his girlfriend Jules head to Tulum, Mexico, for some badly needed R&R. But their vacation is cut short when a young woman in the villa next to theirs is found dead in a bathroom, and $2.5 million dollars-worth of her father’s uncut diamonds go missing.
The local police want to rule the death a suicide, but Rick finds the circumstances too suspicious and fears the young woman, named Ava, was in fact murdered. She suffered from BPD and had a shaky relationship with her father and stepmother, among others. More importantly, her boyfriend—who has conveniently also disappeared, and whom Ava claimed raped her before she died—has a history of assaulting women and getting away with it. That makes him the prime suspect. While Jules braves dangerous territory to try and recover the stolen diamonds, Rick focuses on bringing justice to Ava by tracking down her boyfriend before he flees Mexico for good and leaves behind a cold case.
