Retired Colonel John Matrix, a special forces soldier who once led an elite unit and has left the armed forces to live in a secluded mountain home with his daughter Jenny.
Unbeknownst to Matrix, the members of his former unit are being killed one by one. Even though Matrix's friend General Franklin Kirby gives Matrix armed guards, attackers manage to kidnap Matrix and Jenny.
Matrix learns that Bennett, a former member of his unit who was presumed dead has kidnapped him to try to force Matrix to commit a political assassination for a man called Arius, a warlord formerly bested by Matrix who wishes to lead a military coup in his home country, Val Verde. Since Arius will have Jenny killed if Matrix refuses, Matrix reluctantly accepts the demand.
