As hot-headed cops swarm outside, and cold-blooded killers wield machine guns and rocket launchers inside, the stage is set for the ultimate showdown between anti-hero and uber-villains.

But they haven't counted on a death-defying, one-man cavalry with no shoes, no backup, and no intention of going down easily. Ho ho ho!". Merry christmas to all, and to all a good fight to the death.

With only 58 minutes between life and death, there may be nothing anyone can do. Except one new york city cop, attitude to burn, with nerves of steel, and a reputation for being tough on crime and even harder to kill. But those circling the skies above New York's Kennedy Airport have far more to worry about than missed connections.
