When an amateur pilot goes missing over the waters of Chesapeake Bay, most simply write it off as a tragic accident. Sheriff Ike Schwartz isn't so sure, however, as so decides to investigate this missing persons case himself. What he finds is far from what he expected and ends up launching him into an international investigation of terrorism that could threaten the nation's leaders themselves.
