| Four people dressed in painters'
outfits march into the busy lobby of Manhattan Trust,
a cornerstone Wall Street Branch of a worldwide
financial institution. Within seconds, the costumed
robbers place the bank under a surgically planned
siege, and the 50 patrons and staff become unwitting
pawns in an airtight heist. NYPD hostage negotiators
Detectives Keith Frazier and Bill Mitchell are dispatched
to the scene with orders to establish contact with
the heist's ringleader, Dalton Russell, and ensure
safe release of the hostages. Working alongside
Emergency Services Unit (ESU)
Captain John Darius, all are hopeful that the situation
can be peacefully diffused and that control of the
bank and release of those inside can be secured
in short order. But Russell proves an unexpectedly
canny opponent clever, calm and totally in command
a puppet master with a meticulous plan to disorient
and confuse not only the hostages, but also the
authorities. Outside, the crowd of New Yorkers grows
as the situation becomes increasingly intense tense,
with Frazier's superiors becoming more concerned
about his ability to keep the standoff from spiraling
out of control. The robbers appear to consistently
be one step ahead of the police, outwitting Frazier
and Mitchell at every turn. Frazier's suspicions
that more is at work than anyone perceives are justified
with the entry of Madeline White, a power player
with shadowy objectives, who requests a private
meeting with Russell. The chairman of the bank's
board of directors, controlling entrepreneur Arthur
Case, is also uniquely interested in the moment-to-moment
happenings inside the branch. But just what are
the robbers after? Why has nothing worked to alleviate
the standoff, which stretches on hour after hour?
Frazier is convinced that invisible strings are
being pulled and secret negotiations are taking
