If his bullet meets its target, Odessa - a menacing and powerful Nazi group - will take control of the White House. If he fails, everything he's worked for will be lost. A team of specialist operatives race to stop the attack, and the nation inches closer to catastrophe. As the assassin pulls the trigger, something inexplicable happens.
