It's 2003 and international weapons inspector Ted Keller (Matthew Gilliam) is working in Iraq at the outset of the U.S. invasion. Investigating an uncovered weapons cache, he discovers a biological agent of suspicious origin, which he soon realizes has put his life in jeopardy. Hitting the ground running, his perilous trajectory collides with that of beautiful Congressional aid Ileana Popescu (Lavinia Postolache), who finds herself surrounded by dangers of her own. Joining together they are forced to question everything, while fighting to stay one step ahead of those who want them silenced.
