Stevens, a vibrant tech worker, resides comfortably in the San

beneath.
Dazzling FBI division assistant director David Harp,

leaving him, and he doesn’t understand why.
Meanwhile, the
IRS Criminal Investigation Division sends a top agent to investigate
a suspected money laundering case in Silicon Valley, CA, after one
undercover operative goes missing.
At the same time, the NSA
and FBI have intercepted a suspicious electronic message that could
be a communication between an infamous dark website and
terrorist-wannabes. As the FBI tackles the situation, a mysterious
explosion sends the IRS investigation spinning in another direction,
colliding with the FBI’s case. It quickly ups the ante when Abby
faces unforeseen jeopardy. David has to decode the encrypted message
ASAP to foil mass destruction and save her in time. Can he also win
back her love?
