Jason McLane is on holiday with Jones, staying with some friends in Central America, when a peculiar priest offers him startling news: he may very well be a married man! And because nothing is ever simple in XIII's life, his apparent wife is none other than the leader of the democratic guerrillas in neighbouring Costa Verde, Maria De Los Santos - currently awaiting execution in a maximum security fortress. Time for the amnesiac to put his skills to good use again - for Maria.
