Plot Elements[]
- Raymond Bryce, a former US Marine and International Rescue Team member, and his partner Steve Hewitt are performing a routine rescue mission near the dormant volcano Mt. Aguilas when the volcano unexpectedly erupted.
- During their escape, Steve dies as he falls into the magma below, having let himself go from Ray's grasp as he knew only one of them would be able to escape to safety. During the eruption, Steve passes on an antique compass to Ray and made him promise to give it to his sister Lisa in case he didn't make it.
- One year later, Ray has still not forgiven himself for Steve's death and lacks the courage to confront Lisa over the incident.
- Having quit the Rescue Team and become a public servant, Ray is summoned to meet with special agent Olson of the Blue Ridge City FBI division, who reveals that the former military organization SURGE has stolen several nuclear weapons and kidnapped seismologist Dr. Davis and his assistant Lisa Hewitt.
- SURGE has made demands upon the U.S government and are threatening to detonate the nukes if the White House does not comply within 24 hours.
- Hesitant at first, Ray decides to join the mission on the account of Lisa's involvement and vows to save her since he was not able to save Steve.
- While Olson only recruited Ray to be a liaison between the FBI and Blue Ridge City officials, Ray finds himself taking on all of SURGE single-handedly during a day of utter natural chaos.
- Ray eventually takes down SURGE, recovering the nukes and rescuing Dr. Davis and Lisa. Regaining his courage, Ray also prepares to give Steve's compass to Lisa, while also preparing to reveal the fate of her brother.
