The Colonel has a plan to get revenge on America for killing his father and brothers in the second Iraqi war. At the Agency, a young woman and Marine veteran, Magdalene (Maggie) Vasquez is working as an analysis and has spotted unusual activity in the Middle East but is having difficulties in putting the pieces together. She reports these activities to her boss who agrees that her findings may be important but others in the agency questions her conclusions and as she proves one finding after another the doubts continue. The Colonel has recruited nine Americans fighting in Syria/Iraqi to sneak back into America and start planting bombs in nine American cities during the Christmas season. While American public and law enforcement is frustrated and focused on stopping these nine the Colonel has set in motion his real revenge on America. In the mean-time Maggie is on his trail but a step behind.
