Thirty years after failing to save President Kennedy in Dallas, veteran Secret Service agent Frank Horrigan is pulled back onto presidential protection detail when a man calling himself Booth threatens the current president. Clint Eastwood is Horrigan, still carrying the weight of that earlier day as the case turns personal. The caller (John Malkovich) taunts him by phone and leaves a trail of clues, pushing the job into a tense contest between protector and assassin. Alongside him, Rene Russo’s field chief helps manage a mounting threat that reaches from the White House to the campaign trail.
