MASON PETTITS leaves law school with one year left to start his career in the military. After intensive training, a mission in Paldonia, South America goes awry, and half of his team is hit by an RPG that struck their helicopter while trying to assassinate the country’s president, JUAN ARTURO VENEGAS.
Deeply impacted by this experience, Mason goes back to his family life with his family and tries to get it together in a mediocre law office. When his old army pal SEBASTIAN visits, Mason is presented with a challenging dilemma. Mason’s new mission is to travel to Paldonia to protect journalist, CLAIRE WELLINGTON, who is interviewing none other than President Juan Arturo Venegas. Mason and Claire fly together to Paldonia, where they meet Venegas. As their motorcade goes through the country, their car is suddenly attacked, prompting an equally violent and efficient reaction from Mason, who quickly proves his value as a bodyguard. The three of them are forced to escape from what seems to be a coup.
