Levi Madison, the Vice-President of the United States, was abducted while representing the United States at a funeral for the Turkish Prime Minister. The terrorist group, LORA, claimed responsibility and tried to get the United States to pay ransom for the safe return of the Vice-President. In an attempt to flush out the kidnappers, President Joyce Sanderson has the military bomb the LORA headquarters. Meanwhile the kidnappers keep moving Madison around to keep him from being found. While demonstrating some of their new drone technology, a program manager from AG-Tronics (an American agricultural technology firm), accidently locates the Vice-President sending into motion an attempt to rescue the Vice-President. The political stakes run high and international relations are stretched to their limit.
