The story

A CIA officer loses a shipment of chemical weapons during a covert operation in Eastern Europe when unknown hostiles intercept his convoy. The following day, suicide bombers affiliated with the terrorist organization Al-Qatala attack London. British SAS Captain John Price, CIA operative Alex, and Urzikstan Liberation Force leader Farah Karim join forces to track down the stolen chemicals and confront both the terrorists and a Russian general whose occupation has destabilized the fictional Republic of Urzikstan for decades. As alliances shift and the true origin of the chemical theft is revealed, the team finds itself fighting on multiple fronts. Farah struggles against both foreign occupation and extremism in her homeland, while Alex must decide how far he will go outside official channels. Price works to assemble a coalition capable of stopping the weapons before they can be deployed against civilians.
