Based on a true story in February 0f 1993. Unwittingly recruited by a member of the IRA in Boston, MASS., Alexis Shannon taken in by the young Irishman, and wants to fight along side him for his cause. Sean McGuiness also is an informant for the British SAS as well. The members of the IRA were becoming suspicious of him, and that is when he found Alexis Shannon, and laid the story of fighting for what they believed. She did not know she was to be bait, to take the heat off Sean.

Sean's colleagues in the IRA do not like Alexis, and think that she is the leak to the SAS and have her pose as a journalist to blow up a British police station, with the bomb being inside the camera which would also kill her. However, she leaves the station, before a member of the IRA pushes the remote button for the bomb.

She is captured by the British soldiers and taken to an SAS agent who Sean gives information about the IRA. They drugged her then dropped her off in the street. When she woke up, she did not know where she was, and stepped into a pub. The woman, (owner of the pub) takes her in and helps her. The IRA kills her and Alexis sees it and is horrified. The IRA members hear her scream and go after her, and they kill everyone in the pub.

Alexis gets away, but is captured down by the waterfront. The IRA takes her back to their headquarters, strip her nude, and whip her to get her to talk. Sean has to take her out and kill her, and one of the other members is suppose to kill Sean. The SAS agent saves them both, and Sean hands her a tape, and tells her to take to a federal agent in the U.S. that is a friend of his once she is back in the United States.
