In a powerful and exciting mission by Federal Agent Ron Fleury to eliminate corruption in the Middle East. Ron has one week to assemble a team, infiltrate and destroy a terrorist cell based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which is the most dangerous task because of the opposition of many. There is strong opposition from local law enforcement agencies, which meet to block the progress and development of the elite team. On the other hand, the sympathetic Saudi police commander becomes an unexpected companion in that dangerous mission.

Everything moves so much and so fast that the movie seems both gutsy and brainy. But the main strategy is to keep viewers' pulses racing so they concentrate on the action, not the message.
