As Typhoon Ophelia bears down on the infamous casino hub of Macau in southern China, a research director at a top-secret Chinese bio-weapons facility is preparing to carry out a mission that might end his career but save his life. A few hours later, the scientist is dead and a devastating pathogen is locked away inside the vault of a casino owned by one of the former Portuguese colony’s most violent and ruthless criminal Triads.

Enter former SAS soldier Andrew Sterling, now working for the Regiment’s special investigative unit tasked with hunting down WMD terror threats. Sent covertly into Macau, Andrew must attempt to recover the advanced new pathogen before it is sold to one of the many terror groups actively trying to acquire high-grade bio-weapons.

With the help of an Australian convict who has been promised a shorter sentence in return for assistance, Andrew must put together a crew of shady professionals who can carry out a daring heist against the impenetrable casino vault.

However, the Triad is a formidable adversary, and its feared leader and his brutal henchmen will stop at nothing to thwart the heist and eliminate the would-be thieves. Soon, Andrew and his crew find themselves embroiled in a violent clash with the Triad. With time quickly running out, they must use every resource at their disposal to outwit and outrun the criminals before the terrifying weapon falls into the hands of terrorists.
