More DescriptionFour weary Seattle flight attendants work an all-night flight to the fictional Central American country of Quintana. Their reward is a seventy-five hour layover nestled in the secure confines of a plush beachside resort.Instead they are swept into a political coup led by Ramirez, an environmentalist landowner who sees a window of opportunity to topple the de facto military dictator who threatens his pristine estate--if he can coerce the crew to attempt a ruse more dangerous than a leap into a jaguar's den.Meanwhile Ramirez must protect them from Heinrich, his homicidal nephew, who as a boorish passenger was made the laughing stock of the first class cabin. Heinrich seeks to literally feed the crew to the sharks to avenge the insult.When that protection is compromised, with their nemisis lying in wait, they wade into the heart of a dark jungle night to seize their only chance for survival: become the hunters instead of the hunted.
