It's family day at Camp David and the families of the cabinet members are on their way to meet their respective family members there.  In a flash there is an explosion and in the chaos every Secret Service agent and every family member, men, women and children are savagely murdered.
Former Army sniper Vick Harwood is called to be a member of a team that will seek retribution for these murders.  As he and the team begin to target those who allegedly target the families something seems off to him.  Partnering with a female FBI agent he is soon targeted by various elements of the U.S. government and the allies of those he targeted.  
As Vick and his partner flee they also are investigating the circumstances and figuring just how high the corruption and how someone is trying to manipulate them for their own political gain.
