The ghost operatives head into the Molguzar mountains searching for sixty billion dollars in KGB gold buried before the Soviet collapse. Their mission takes a dangerous turn when they detour to rescue FBI agent April Showers from a sadistic torturer. Storm discovers his loyalties divided as the operation falls apart. The team faces a violent confrontation on the mountainside. Storm and Showers realize their assignment concealed deadly deceptions.
