Looks can be deceiving . . .
Charlotte Gray's perfect life is turned upside down on Christmas Eve when Dan, her husband of six months, goes outside to take out the garbage and disappears without a trace. She is totally unprepared for the news the FBI give her: that Dan is actually an international terrorist and criminal known as Daniel O'Toole.
O'Toole is reportedly the brains behind the Armagh Army - a breakaway faction of the Irish Republican Army.
According to the FBI dossier, in his years as an operational leader for the splinter group, O'Toole has killed dozens of people, counterfeited millions of dollars and outfitted the Armagh Army with a vast arsenal. Now the Feds see Charlotte as their greatest asset in the hunt to track down O'Toole.
Charlotte builds a successful career in a new town, where she hears the news that O'Toole has been killed in a botched arms deal in the Balkans. Then the FBI informs her they made a mistake - O'Toole is alive and headed her way, with plans to blow up a facility in the area.
Before she can digest this information, a man who claims to be working for the Black Ops Division, a counterterrorism unit within the FBI, abducts Charlotte and tells her she is in grave danger. Various organisations that have an interest in O'Toole want to use Charlotte to get to him.
Charlotte doesn't know how much she can trust the word of her abductor, so she resolves to accomplish two things - escape her captor and exact her revenge on Daniel O'Toole.
