When Peter Bowman, an American engineer working in a South American country, is captured by anti-government forces, the rebels learn his identity and demand $5 million for his safe return. However, his US employer is on the verge of insolvency and will not provide the ransom. Peter's wife Alice is forced to deal with the matter on her own and she retains the services of freelance professional hostage negotiator Terry Thorne.
Forget the typical rescue fantasy, as this tense negotiation focuses on the brutal logistics of corporate indifference and ransom politics. A desperate wife must navigate a web of lies to save her husband when his employers refuse to pay the price.
