A UN interpreter overhears an assassination plot in a language only she understands. She believes a visiting head of state is the target. A cynical U.S. Secret Service agent is assigned to investigate her claims, unsure if she is a witness, a target, or a participant in a larger conspiracy that reaches into the highest levels of international politics.
