After an explosion at an army base that kills several soldiers, President Jonathan Hayes attends a memorial service and is shot while speaking. It is revealed that a militia rebel group has resurfaced with a vengeance to assassinate President Jonathan Hayes for the death of their brothers. Agent Alex McGregor, now the Director of the United States Secret Service, tries to prevent the attack on the President's life, but when the President is shot and agent McGregor's husband Grant Coleman, is kidnapped, the stakes are raised, and Alex realizes she has become a target as well.
