Estha Vine is missing with a big bag of illegal money. Her daddy wants them both back. Lynch, an old fashioned type of gangster and half thinking of getting out of the game altogether, has a hunch so he heads out to the desert town of Hallem where Estha’s mother was born. Arriving at dawn, he takes coffee in the town’s only diner and spins a thin lie to the waitress Eve about his car breaking down. As the day crawls on, he meets the array of misfits who inhabit the diner and empty streets. He begins to probe their lives and the town’s history in an effort to discover the truth about Estha and reveals a mesh of wasted hopes, passion and corruption. All the while, one name comes up again and again, Movius, an old liar who sits in the diner drinking coffee all day but seems to be at the centre of everything. As day turns to night and the town crowds in, Lynch finds the case turns into more than just a missing person and discovers that he just might be in some real danger. And damn, it just too hot for that.
