Grey Meadows is a pure blood Seminole Indian. His diving skills provided him with a scholarship which allowed him to obtain a college degree and entrance into the United States Marine Corps as a commissioned officer. Colonel Grey Meadows retires from The Marine Corps after a longand brilliant career after the final task of coordinating the logistic support of all the Marines entrenched in Afghanistan and Iraq. The reason he gives his inquiring friends for his departure is that he is entering another season of his life. In reality, the only love of his life, his wife Coleen, died while he was fulfilling his last combat obligation. His wife"s death certificate lists suicide as the cause of death. Grey is unconvinced the most wonderful lady in the world who became his wife would commit such an atrocious deed, so he sets out to North Carolina to set the record straight. Along the way, he saves a twenty-something, female road-warrior from an angry crowd of truck drivers who are intent on taking full advantage of her vulnerability. When Grey starts to leave the truck stop, the young women asks for a ride. From that point on, they form an uneasy union, as they drive on to North Carolina. Although the two of them are ill-equipped for the task, together with the help of the Cherokee Nation, they solve the mystery of his wife"s death, expose an international cocaine cartel and set the record straight before heading off to their next adventure.
