At the height of the Vietnam War, former US special operations commander codenamed Drake went rogue and captured a powerful Christian relic. His intent was to sell the relic on the black market getting revenge on his former country and the brother that he believed betrayed him. The last hope of retrieving the relic and preventing the destruction of the free world rests in the hands of special operations team leader Captain William H. Frost who is haunted by events that occurred during previous past military conflicts. Captain Frost's final mission is to retrieve the relic and find redemption for past sins.
