The story concerns a computer systems analyst who finds herself in a web of identity theft, robbery, and murder when she lands in Turkey for a new job.

Hope Cassidy, a young computer systems analyst looking for excitement in her life, accepts a well-paying job in Istanbul at Suzer International, where she will begin by securing the Internet network of a Russian company.

When Hope arrives in Istanbul Airport, she is told by the immigration officer that she has a tourist visa, which cannot be used for working purposes, and is advised to go to the American consulate in order to have her soon-expiring passport renewed.

The police and Dr. Kavak do not believe her explanations, and accuse her of murdering the taxi driver and the woman now impersonating her, Z.Z.. After an incident during Hope's interrogation, she is given an injection which puts her to sleep.

By her side is Roxelena, who is actually an Interpol agent and reveals that thanks to the bracelet she gave her in the airplane (which was in fact a homing beacon), Hope's whereabouts were known to the police at all times.

She leaves Istanbul with a new identity, enjoying her first class flight back home, in front of her laptop screen that reveals a bank account balance of five million dollars.

Brent Simon of IGN rated it 5/10 stars and wrote that because DeLoach does not imbue her character with the same "sympathetic girl-next-door imperilment" that Bullock did, the sequel is pointless.
