As a prologue. a nameless Cambodian girl leaves her village for Bangkok. Upon arriving, she is kidnapped, drugged, and sold in the "skin trade" (human trafficking).
The action moves to the city of Newark, where a Newark Police Department detective named Nick Cassidy discovers that Serbian mobster Viktor Dragovic is in New Jersey. Meanwhile, in Bangkok, detective Tony Vitayakul attempts to buy a Thai girl from a group of human traffickers. When his cover is blown, he subdues the traffickers and frees the girl from captivity, gleaning the identity of a ship being used to transport trafficked girls, where the ship will dock, and that Dragovic will be present to receive the shipment.
Cassidy and his captain, Costello, brief a group of police officers on Dragovic, revealing he is "a major player" in human trafficking worldwide. As the cargo ship carrying Dragovic's container approaches America, Cassidy and the department prepare to intercept it at the docks. When the ship arrives, Dragovic discovers the trafficked women have died during transport. The ship's captain is held responsible, tortured, then shot in the head. A shootout erupts as the police move in for an arrest. Cassidy chases Dragovic and his youngest son, Andre, as they flee. He fatally shoots Andre in self-defense and Dragovic is arrested. While in custody, Dragovic arranges to have Cassidy and his entire family murdered, having his house blown up. Cassidy's wife and daughter are killed, while Cassidy survives despite being shot in the back.
