International crime boss Jack Fox makes two mistakes with journalist Katherine Johnson. He let her get too close to the truth, and he killed her. Katherine's ex-husband is Blake Johnson, the head of a clandestine White House department known as the Basement. With the President's permission, the former FBI agent is now on a mission for revenge. To take out Fox, Johnson will need help. That means teaming up with ex-IRA mercenary Sean Dillon.
