SYNOPSIS:

Fresh out of Delta Force, Jeff Mackay is down on his luck. He owes $2 mil. to the Russian Mafia and his bar is sucking him dry. If he doesn't find the money soon, he's a dead man. From nowhere, a renegade female operative makes an offer that he cannot refuse. A hit on Al Qaeda's cell in South America, sanctioned and funded by the Agency. Suicidal, yes, but he just might be the one to pull it off. Jeff gathers a small team of locals, their mission: to steal $30 milllion in gold and diamonds from the world's most deadly terrorist organization. The Agency offers all the equipment and information needed. It is the perfect job; safe, quick and patriotic. But after the money is stolen, the story blows up in his face. A lonesome assassin is sent by Al Qaeda and systematically takes down the team, one by one. Silent and expert, the killer stalks, targeting them and their families. Jeff knows that he's next to die.
