Revenge and extortion.

In Southern California, Adolf, a man who looks like Hitler, vows, "Captain Baker, you will rue the day you testified."

Adolf and his men go by descriptive nicknames. Needles, his addict son, Einstein, the bomb expert, Lefty, Muscles, Doc, and Cookie, his chef.

Sunday evening a few hours after youth pastor, Daniel Baker, patches things up with his wife, Cindy, he is kidnapped. Monday evening, she is chloroformed, and their sons, Danny age five and Timmy age three, are kidnapped.

Cindy and six-month-old Jonathan stay with Dan's adoptive parents Cap and Amanda for six days while Dan is forced to retrieve money extorted from corporations owning busy stores and markets throughout Orange County. Cap works with the FBI and other law enforcement agencies to stop the criminals and rescue Dan and the boys, but their efforts to tail Dan or pass him a tracking device result in explosions.

Chained, sedated at night, and tormented by Adolf, Dan fights anger, fear, and frustration while he waits for God to act but wonders if God will before or after Adolf kills him. Faith assures him that God will save Danny and Timmy.
