L'agente segreto Bryan, dopo tanti anni di servizio nei quali ha più e più volte sacrificato la famiglia per amore della patria, si è dimesso per poter stare vicino alla figlia diciassettenne che vive con la madre e il facoltoso patrigno in una lussuosa villa a Los Angeles. Quando Kim gli chiede il permesso di poter andare a Parigi con un'amica lui, da prima un po' titubante, acconsente a patto che la figlia lo chiami ogni giorno e lo informi dei suoi spostamenti. Giunte nella capitale francese le due ragazze vengono rapite da un'organizzazione che commercia in prostitute per venderle al miglior offerente. Bryan ha le ore contate per mettersi sulle tracce dei criminali e ritrovare Kim.
