    When something distracts Secret Agent Sean King for a split second, it costs him his career and presidential candidate, Clyde Ritter, his life. But what stole his attention? And why was Ritter shot? Eight years later Michelle Maxwell is on the fast track through the ranks of the Secret Service when her career is stopped short: presidential candidate John Bruno is abducted from a funeral home while under her protection. The similarity between the two cases drives Michelle to re-open investigations into the Ritter fiasco and join forces with attractive ex-agent King. The pair are determined to get to the bottom of what happened in those critical moments. Meanwhile, high-ranking members of the legal system and key witnesses from both cases are going missing. King is losing friends, colleagues and clients fast and his ex-lover, Joan Dillinger, is playing curious games - she wants Sean back, but she also owes him for something . . .

Maar onderweg naar hun eerste bespreking treffen King en Maxwell het levenloze lichaam van Bergin in zijn auto aan. Hij is vermoord. In een poging te achterhalen wat er precies gebeurd is, neemt King, die tevens advocaat is, de verdediging van Roy op zich. Samen met Maxwell gaat hij op zoek naar antwoorden op vragen die iedereen uit de weg gaat. Want is Edgar Roy inderdaad een moordenaar? En wie heeft Ted Bergin vermoord? En waarom is de FBI zo geïnteresseerd in deze zaak? Wanneer King en Maxwell in Roys verleden beginnen te graven, komen ze tegenover een zeer machtige vijand binnen de overheid te staan. Maar terwijl de dreigementen aan het adres van de twee onderzoekers steeds serieuzer worden en de muur tussen hen en de waarheid steeds hoger lijkt te worden, krijgen ze hulp vanuit een onverwachte hoek.
