Reliquie rubate, piani subdoli, alleanze discutibili: la paura attanaglia l’Europa.
Tom Wagner è insoddisfatto del proprio lavoro. Il suo impiego nell’unità antiterrorismo d’élite Cobra consiste principalmente in esercitazioni inutili e nella protezione di politici, finché, un giorno, non individua l’assassino dei suoi genitori in un aeroporto e sopravvive a un brutale attacco nella camera del tesoro del palazzo imperiale di Vienna.
Improvvisamente, lui e la sua ex fidanzata, l’archeologa Hellen de Mey, si ritrovano coinvolti in una rete di intrighi internazionali. Un’oscura organizzazione criminale sta rubando antichi manufatti cristiani in tutta Europa e presto Tom ed Hellen si ritrovano a correre contro il tempo per salvare un’arma sacra dalle mani di spietati terroristi e sventare un piano mostruoso che potrebbe scuotere il mondo dalle sue fondamenta.
