Mack Bedford returns to Maine a broken man. The relentless warrior who avenged a bloody attack on his fellow soldiers now faces military discharge after a court martial verdict destroys his career. His sense of justice lies in ruins. His hopes have crumbled. But Mack cannot afford to surrender. His son Tommy is dying from a rare disease that only an expensive Swiss clinic can treat. The surgery costs one million dollars. Mack has no choice but to accept a dangerous proposal that will pit him against a European arms industry magnate, one of the continent's most powerful men. The mission forces him to abandon every principle he once held sacred. He must become everything he once despised. To save his son, the former soldier must transform into an assassin.
