Summaries

An army colonel and a seasoned mercenary have three days to rescue a kidnapped ambassador from the drug lord who kidnapped him.

When a World Security Ambassador is kidnapped by savage Colombian drug lord Carlo Perez, General Howard orders Colonel Wright to save him swiftly, secretly, and using any means necessary to retrieve him. Wright calls on an old war buddy turned mercenary, Calvin Sims, to free the General. Sims signs up Rick Masters, an expert in weapons and explosives, and heads for the Mexican border with their guide Yolanda, a young stripper who was once Perez' mistress. Lethal action takes the screen by storm as the mission nears its target. But someone is leaking information to Perez that could destroy Sims and his men. With only three days to complete his mission, Sims will need every ounce of firepower at his disposal if he is to defeat Perez and not become his victim.

At a Chicago-area naval base, an ambassador is kidnapped. Later, a Navy officer calls his friend Cal for help. A Colombian drug lord is holding the ambassador, and the officer wants Cal to rescue the man. Cal convinces the officer to get a pardon for imprisoned explosives expert Rick, and together Cal and Rick form an uneasy partnership. They travel to meet Yolanda, a stripper who supposedly knows the location of this drug lord, named Perez (who looks like a creation out of Madame Tussaud's). Our threesome then sets about to rescue the ambassador. Cal, Rick, and Yolanda meet resistance at every turn; apparently Perez's men have the drop on them. After multiple shootouts, Cal convinces Yolanda to use her son as a pawn to draw Perez away from his home, and then all hell breaks loose.—veloc <[email protected]>
