The fugitives chased a hidden fortune in Utah, but the real enemy was "The Company," a shadow organization that had framed Lincoln. By the end of the chase, Michael found himself sacrificed to the system once more, landing in Sona—a hellish Panamanian prison where there are no guards, only inmates.
