After a chance meeting, the women learn that the men in their lives shared a dangerous secret, one that some very powerful people would shed blood to protect. Crisscrossing the globe, Hannah and Neeley must win a deadly game of survival to keep the United States safe not only from vicious acts of terror, but from its own powers that be.
