Nicolette Scott, an archaeologist and old plane expert, is asked to join a search for a Japanese plane downed in Alaska during WWII. The mission is being funded by a pharmaceutical company in the interest of history. However, a much darker motive powers the search, one which Nick gradually becomes aware of.
