Elite assassins Mike Locken (James Caan) and George Hansen (Robert Duvall) take on jobs too risky for even the CIA to handle.

But when one high-powered hitman betrays another, the intrigue, the violence and the thrills become more than just a dangerous game of who-kills-whom first. It becomes a very personal war!
