Although he prefers the simple, direct life, Mafor Peter Petersen's life is far from simple.

Against the backdrop of the Balkan Peninsula during World War II, Peter leads a commando force to deliver a vital message to the Partisans. Peter knows it won't be a smooth operation. That sixth sense a veteran acquires warns him of a set up. His orders reek of double cross and deception.
