Synopsis

Seven years ago, Sean Rogan’s dedication to the Irish Republican Army landed him in a high-security prison. When the organization needs his help again, Rogan stages a daring jailbreak, determined to intercept an armored truck and deliver its payload to IRA leader Colum O’More. But the IRA of years past is long gone, replaced by an organization rife with betrayal and manipulation. With the police hot on Rogan’s trail, he must face down the treachery from all sides that threatens to bring his mission to a bloody end.
