A brief recap of Tracker season 3 episode 4

Ad

In Tracker season 3 episode 4, No Man's Land, Colter Shaw finds himself in the middle of a missing person case that gets twisted after every lead he discovers. The woman who hires him to find her boyfriend, Trey, is not Gracie but Maggie Holt, the Sheriff's wife.

And while Sheriff Colt becomes a suspect for Trey's kidnapping and Colter's own abduction and assassination plot, a brief conversation confirms that he's innocent, and he quickly becomes Colter's ally. It turns out that 19-year-old Jimmy abducted Trey to use him to get into the compound of a local criminal, Diaz, who called out the hit that killed his mom when he was 14.

He wants revenge, but after getting Trey to safety, Colter also saves Jimmy. Diaz still ends up dead during the shootout, and Jimmy also fights for his life after getting shot. Thankfully, Trey still decides to help him despite the abduction and saves Jimmy's life.
