One final mission with a tired ship and an exhausted crew. The men and women of the destroyer USS Kimmel are on the 7th month of a 6 month deployment to the Med when they get one last mission, retrieve a defecting Libyan officer. But what they get is a dead Libyan officer, a live CIA agent and the location of Americans being held hostage in Libya. A rescue mission is planned out, but when an accident destroys the rescue team, with the clock ticking, the mission falls to the crew of the Kimmel. Led by a renegade CIA agent, a former paratrooper and an ambitious Captain, the sailors of the Kimmel must improvise equipment, organize a landing party and strike deep into Libya before a terrorist deadline runs out.
