At the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Colonel Pantic is accused and charged with crimes against humanity, but no one dares to testify against him. Vince Harrington, a young officer of the court, decides to go to Ex-Yugoslavia in search of the only man capable of confronting the colonel, former General Nikola Radin. Contrary to his expectations, the journey will turn into a fierce manhunt in the Balkan mountains.
