Tot ze bij het landhuis aankomt en een lijk in een geheime kamer ontdekt—en dat niets is zoals het lijkt. De wapenhandelaar blijkt niet te bestaan en het slachtoffer is Harry Lancaster, een man met banden met de maffia die ooit in het getuigenbeschermingsprogramma zat. Bovendien werkt er niemand met de naam Arlene Robinson bij ProEye. In een oogwenk is Gibson de belangrijkste verdachte in een moordonderzoek—en nu staat ook haar baan op het spel totdat ze bewijst dat ze in de val is gelokt.
