Former military sniper Brock Beckett arrives in Destiny, Arkansas, to interview for a high school teaching job and finds his daughter, 16-year-old Cissy Nelson, whom he believed to be dead for 14 years. The murder of Nelson ranch foreman Frederico Mendez in a sniper shooting shatters the harmony of Destiny and resurrects a foreboding in Beckett.
The discovery of a "sniper's nest" on the Nelson property leads Beckett and Destiny Mayor Lloyd Nelson to believe Mendez was "collateral damage" to an assassination plot as retired Chinese army General Huang Do-Lin announces plans for a new industrial project in Destiny. Soon, Beckett realizes Huang was never a target and he and Nelson have been deceived.
Beckett begins to look over his shoulder believing that he is the target of another sniper. When Beckett realizes how Mendez's murder was orchestrated, he confronts his former commander, retired General Pierpont Maxwell, to learn the truth. As Beckett speeds back into Destiny, dodging bullets in his Jeep Cherokee, he has one chance... one shot. But, Beckett must risk a "lagniappe," something extra, to save an innocent life.
