Federal Marshal Madolyn arrests Winston, a fugitive financial criminal in Alaska who has ties to the mob. He immediately offers to testify against the crime boss in exchange for protection and freedom. However, getting the witness from the wilderness to the nearest major population center to then be flown to New York City can only be accomplished by a small, single-engine airplane. After takeoff, Madolyn and Winston are trapped because the pilot is not who he says he is.
