Pero cuando los filones son una trampa, pueden acabar con tu carrera profesional y, lo que es peor, con tu vida.

Lincoln, 14 aprile 2009: la cattedrale della città inglese è gremita di ex militari, riuniti per dare l’ultimo saluto a Tenny, uomo e soldato eccezionale, caduto in azione. Non manca proprio nessuno al funerale, neppure Nick Stone solitamente refrattario a raduni e a rimpatriate, che cerca in quella folla i due amici più cari, Ken il Rosso e Dex. Con loro e con Tenny ha affrontato una missione pericolosa nella Germania dell’Est poco prima del crollo del Muro. Ora che si sono ritrovati, i suoi due vecchi compagni gli propongono di tornare in azione insieme, e Nick Stone non sa dire di no. Il piano, per i suoi due amici, è semplice: in un magazzino a Dubai si trovano, pressocché incustodite, due porte d’oro che Saddam Hussein si è fatto costruire prima della seconda guerra del Golfo. Si tratta di rubarle e consegnarle su una pista d’atterraggio al misterioso committente del furto. Un’azione rischiosa, come Stone sa fin troppo bene. Infatti, qualcosa va storto e i suoi due amici ci rimettono la vita. Solo Stone si salva e decide di vendicarli, sperando così di placare il senso di colpa per non aver saputo proteggerli. Ma la situazione si complica ulteriormente…
