Actually, the assignment sounds more like a kind of vacation: Connor is supposed to accompany a diplomat family on a three-week safari trip as a bodyguard through one of the most beautiful regions of Africa. But things take a different turn: a military coup plunges the country into a bloody civil war. The safari group falls into the hands of an armed militia. At a fortunate moment, Connor manages to escape with those he is protecting. A breathless flight through the African bush begins.
