Whilst in South Sudan on a routine mission, close protection officer Sam Carlson (Noomi Rapace) saves two journalists she is protecting, when their vehicle is attacked by local insurgents. Zoe Tanner (Sophie Nelisse), the troubled child and heir of recently deceased business tycoon Eric Tanner, discovers she has been left all of her father's shares in his company, Hassine Mining. This shocks and angers her stepmother, Rima Hassine (Indira Varma), whose family founded the company and who has taken over Eric's position as CEO. Having succeeded in negotiating a billion-dollar deal for phosphate mining in Zambia, Rima demands that Zoe accompany her to the family house in Morocco whilst she completes the deal. Rima hires Sam to act as Zoe's bodyguard for the trip, as her previous male bodyguard was fired for having sex with Zoe. Upon arriving at the family's fortified Kasbah in Morocco, Zoe demands that Sam remain for the full time she has been paid and stay the night. Later that evening, the safe-house's security system is breached, locking the property down and trapping its inhabitants. The intruders kill multiple members of the security team. The heavily armed intruders make their way to Zoe's room and kill the head of security, Alik (Akin Gazi), in route. Zoe escapes with Sam, and they are picked up by responding police officers. Although the officers assure them, they are being taken to a police station, Zoe (who speaks Arabic) overhears them discussing a private address and money. Sam fights and disarms the officers, but Zoe ends up shooting one of them with Sam's sidearm. The two escape on foot into Casablanca and take refuge in a hotel. News of the incident causes share prices in Hassine Mining to drop considerably, potentially enabling their competitor Sikong to steal the deal from under Hassine for the mining business in Zambia. Zoe calls Rima for help, but Rima is furious at Zoe for killing a police officer which has caused the share prices to tank. Rima also cancels the insurance policy on Zoe. On live TV, Rima comes under pressure from Sikong that Zoe is a shareholder of Hassine mining and as such the company's owner is implicit in a manslaughter charge. Rima defends that Zoe is not associated with the company yet (as shares have not been transferred yet) and as such Zoe's personal conduct should not impact a business deal. The Zambian company's board tells Rima that they are reconsidering Hassine's offer. Rima makes a call that looks like she ordered a hit on Zoe. Sam is no longer under contract from Hassine and as such decides to save Zoe on her own. Sam promises to get Zoe out of the country and is later joined by her boss Conall (Eoin Macken). Their escape plan is for the three of them to travel as a family to Tangier and take the ferry to Spain. They are ambushed at the hotel by men who kill Conall. Sam saves Zoe from being taken by brutally fighting and killing two of the men. Unable to leave the country without passports, Sam and Zoe travel to Hassine Mining headquarters to meet Rima. There, they witness her in the car park with one of the suspicious men from the hotel. They follow him to a local marina (there the man from the hotel meets a local policeman. Turns out that the local police was acting for Rima through the man in the hotel as the middleman), but Sam is noticed and the two fight; Sam impales him with a large fishing hook. Looking through his wallet, Sam and Zoe discover he is a police officer and had Rima's login details for the house security system. Whilst meeting with the selling company, Rima is confronted by a member of the competitor Sikong, who makes further threats on Zoe. Sam and Zoe return to the abandoned safe-house, where Zoe discovers that Sam previously had a child whom she put up for adoption because Sam was only 16 at the time and a kid herself. During a meeting to finalize the mining deal, Rima receives a notification that her phone has been accessed by the house security system (by Zoe, who used Rima's login and password at the house security system to access RIma's phone), and she leaves without signing the mining deal (realizing that Zoe is alive). The house is surrounded by corrupt members of the police (who are actually working for Sikong), who refuse to allow a honest detective from Casablanca working with Rima to enter. Rima arrives by helicopter. She reveals to Zoe that she is being blackmailed (by Sikong) and that she is not responsible for the attempts on her life. She is attacked by the mercenaries and corrupt officers, although Zoe and Sam intervene and eventually save her. Sam is wounded in the wrist. With Zoe and Rima safe, and the threat over, Sam leaves to head home but promises Zoe she will call her daughter.

Whilst in South Sudan on a routine mission, close protection officer Sam Carlson (Noomi Rapace) saves two journalists she is protecting, when their vehicle is attacked by local insurgents. Zoe Tanner (Sophie Nelisse), the troubled child and heir of recently deceased business tycoon Eric Tanner, discovers she has been left all of her father's shares in his company, Hassine Mining. This shocks and angers her stepmother, Rima Hassine (Indira Varma), whose family founded the company and who has taken over Eric's position as CEO.
