An explosion in Beirut supposedly kills a Marine captain. Back in the United States, his twin brother, Chris Brandt, receives the news. Chris shares an almost extra-sensory connection with his brother and senses that he's still alive. Chris travels to Beirut and visits the American Embassy. A Consular Liason says that he will investigate his brother's death, but urges Chris to return to the US. Undeterred, Chris continues the search and discovers that his brother is being held prisoner by an anti-American terrorist group. Chris infiltrates the camp and frees his brother.
