Michael Bryce, l'un des meilleurs gardes du corps au monde, est engagé par son ex, l'agent Amélia Roussel, pour protéger rien de moins que son propre ennemi juré, le tueur à gages Darius Kincaid après que ce dernier ait été blessé au cours d'une tentative d'assassinat. En effet, Kincaid doit témoigner et apporter les preuves des crimes contre l'humanité perpétrés par le dictateur biélorusse Vladislav Dukhovich devant la Cour pénale internationale de La Haye dans les 24 heures. Les autres témoins ont soit été assassinés, soit n'ont aucune preuve de ces crimes malgré leur témoignage, et Kincaid est donc le dernier obstacle entre le dictateur et l'acquittement et son retour au pouvoir. Mais Dukhovich va tout tenter pour les arrêter.

But in battle his courage fails him, and, to avoid being killed, he plays dead—while his unit is massacred. He is transported along with the other dead (with his commanding officer's blood dripping into his mouth) back to the Mexican headquarters. However, in a moment of sudden bravery, he captures the Mexican command. For his heroism Boyd is promoted to Captain, but when his commanding officer learns of the cowardice by which his victory was achieved, he exiles Boyd to the remote Fort Spencer in the Sierra Nevada mountain range.
