Continuing the tale of Patrick O'Doyle and Bertha Lybrand, who were part of the horror show that occurred far below the mountains of Utah. They learn that the "mother of all motherlodes" discovered there was not unique, that there is another deposit similar to it three miles beneath the towering peak of Cerro Chaltén on the disputed border between Chile and Argentina.
O'Doyle, a middle-aged former member of a disgraced black-ops unit, gets his aging team back together to go after this fortune.

This time, O'Doyle is well-prepared and well-armed, so if he survives, he will be set for life, and he will have his revenge for the Utah massacre.
