Скромному фотографу Брайану Лайтхаусу не повезло. Совершенно неожиданно он оказался в долгу перед обосновавшимся в США хорватским криминальным авторитетом Вадиком Никитиным. Теперь Брайану нужно жениться на дочери бандита Маше, чтобы та смогла беспрепятственно получить американское гражданство, а потом спокойно развестись.

Дело осложняется и тем, что во время медового месяца на далеком экзотическом острове новоиспеченную жену похищают неизвестные. Ее возвращение становится для Брайана вопросом жизни и смерти…
