    Hazel Bannock is de belangrijkste erfgenaam van Bannock Oil Corp, een van de grootste olieproducenten ter wereld. Tijdens een cruise op de Indische Oceaan wordt Hazels privéjacht gekaapt door Somalische piraten. Hazel is op dat moment niet aan boord, maar haar negentienjarige dochter Cayla wordt gekidnapt. De piraten eisen niet minder dan twintig miljoen dollar losgeld voor haar vrijlating. Ingewikkelde politieke en diplomatieke overwegingen weerhouden de autoriteiten ervan in te grijpen. Hazel is radeloos, en wanneer ze bewijs ontvangt van de gruwelijke martelingen waaraan haar dochter wordt onderworpen, roept ze de hulp in van Hector Cross. Hector is de eigenaar van Cross Bow Security, het bedrijf dat de beveiliging voor Bannock Oil Corp verzorgt, en een man die zich door niets of niemand laat stoppen. Samen besluiten Hazel en Hector het recht in eigen hand te nemen en Cayla te bevrijden.
