Plot[baguhin | baguhin ang wikitext]
U.S. Army Brad Paxton is living with his wife Kate and a daughter in New York City , an archaeologist, still haunted by the nightmare of his service in Syria, where some of the soldiers were killed. After giving a speech in a conference, Kate travels to Morocco for archaeological mission where she meets French-Algerian archaeologist Jean Rashidi. When Kate and her team drives to find the ancient city hidden under the dessert, they realize that they had inadvertently crossed the border of Algeria. The local insurgents arrive and kidnap Kate, Jean and Moroccan scout leader Amir Jadid. Jadid is released later.
Brad receives a news about Kate and travels to Rabat where he meets a Moroccan government liaison Younes Laalej, a former U.S. army who had been served together with Brad. U.S. Ambassador Williams reluctantly agrees to join Younes and Brad in the operation to gather intel despite Tom Fitzgerald's objections. The embassy discloses that the terrorist leader Jaafar El Hadi had been wanted by the Interpol for several year's and been hiding off the radar. Meanwhile, El Hadi and his comrades voted for killing Kate if the million dollar ransom is not paid after their evening prayer.
With the help of counter-terrorism agency, they manage to track the whereabouts to El Hadi's compound in Abadla. Brad and Younes embark the hour-long drive there. After Younes sends the coordinates of the compound, Williams orders the U.S. President to send NAVY SEALs to assist them in the operation. At night, Brad and Younes manage to kill most of the men and Brad finds and hides Kate. The terrorists kill Jean after the French government failed to pay the ransom. When the two are confronted by El Hadi, he forces Younes to order the government to transfer the $10 million ransom money into El Hadi's offshore account. As El Hadi attempts to escape, the SEALs arrive and kill El Hadi and his remaining men. The SEALs rescue Kate and depart without Brad and Younes, who gets incapacitated after blowing up the compound.
The next day, Brad reunites with Kate at the Morocco-Algeria border. Later, Jadid meets Fitz, who compliments the former's bravery and granted him an American citizenship and a CIA asset. However, as Jadid departs, he is assassinated behind the door and Fitz reveals to be the lobbyist for the old company which finances the terrorist networks. As Fitz and his associates get out of the building, Younes spies on them and texts Brad of their corruption.
