It only took a split second for an assassin's bullet to fell presidential candidate Clyde Ritter-and to destroy the career of Secret Service agent Sean King, the man in charge of protecting him at all costs. Eight years later another presidential candidate is abducted under the watchful eye of special agent Michelle Maxwell, begging the question: Are these two crimes as related as they seem? Now in a bid for redemption and justice, the two disgraced agents must form an uneasy alliance that will require them to lift the veil on the government's Witness Protection Program-and reveal to what extent they have been played for others' gain.
