| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Supreme Sanction |
|---|
David Dukes plays Jordan, a television reporter. For some reason, someone wants to kill him. The female assassin gets an attack of conscience and refuses to do it. The agency ordering the assassination is actually a branch of the government. They are an anti-terrorist agency that is ordering random hits on people, basically to justify the agency's existence. The hit on Jordan was ordered because he knows something that they don't want discovered. When the assassin fails to kill him, the agency now has two goals: kill Jordan and the assassin. Fortunately she gets to Jordan first and takes him into hiding. Now she has to keep them both out of danger so that they can get to the authorities. But it isn't going to be easy. And the situation is complicated when the agency kidnaps Jordan's daughter.
