Earl Stone est un paisible horticulteur âgé de plus de 80 ans, vétéran de la guerre de Corée. Endetté jusqu’au cou et sans perspective réelle d’emploi, il accepte un travail particulièrement facile et lucratif : celui de chauffeur. On lui demande seulement de transporter des sacs d'une ville à une autre au volant de son pick-up. Il découvre assez rapidement qu'il s'agit de drogue et qu'il travaille pour le compte d’un cartel mexicain : un go fast apaisé, pense-t-il. Mais alors que ses factures passent au rayon des mauvais souvenirs, le poids de son passé refait surface : aider la famille et les amis... et il ne peut s'empêcher de leur venir en aide en poursuivant cette activité. Mais il va falloir faire vite, car Colin Bates, agent de la Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), se met à traquer ce passeur efficace.
