Marine Lt.-Colonel Nick Palermo is sent to Cairo, Egypt, to find an elusive airplane mechanic, Bashir Yassin, who is believed to have extensive knowledge of subversive activities in the mid-east war. Nick's prowling the streets of Cairo brings him into conflict with the Egyptian police, Islamic terrorists, and international arms dealers who want Bashir dead. To deliver him alive to the CIA, Nick is forced to become Bashir's protector. That makes him the enemy of Bashir's enemies and soon leads to mistrust of his loyalty by the CIA. What Nick thought would be a simple track-down and capture of an airplane mechanic turns into a bloody nightmare.
