Let’s talk about the scene that justifies this whole search. After stealing a city bus, Shockley welds scrap metal plates onto its windows. Augustina drives while he leans out the door, firing a shotgun.
Ben drove through a hail of bullets, the windshield spiderwebbing into milk glass. Gus grabbed the wheel when he took a round to the shoulder. They ditched the sedan in a dry riverbed and stole a county coroner’s van, bodies in back, Gus cracking jokes through the pain.
Shockley soon discovers that Gus is not a "nothing witness," but a college-educated prostitute with information so sensitive that the Mafia—and corrupt elements within the police department—are betting sixty-to-one against her making it to the trial alive. The pair finds themselves caught in a literal "gauntlet" as they trek across the desert, pursued by bikers, helicopters, and an army of corrupt officers.
