Synopsis:
Pete Garrison is a U.S. Secret Service agent who saved a president’s life by
jumping in front of a hail of bullets, over twenty years ago.
Well-liked and respected by his colleagues in the Secret Service, Garrison is a
career agent who now heads the First Lady’s detail. He lives in a high-level,
orderly world of hierarchical structure, plans, maps, motorcades, code names,
lingo and procedures. It's a universe that makes sense, until secrets begin to
tear it apart. Pete's fellow agent and friend, Charlie Merriweather, hints at
wanting to share critical and confidential information. Before that can happen,
however, Merriweather is shot dead at his house in a crime that is made to look
like a botched robbery.
The investigation falls to the Secret Service’s top investigative agent, David
Breckinridge, a volatile combination of by-the-book and hothead, Garrison's
protégé, and, until recently one of Garrison’s best friends. Breckinridge
follows the evidence and only the evidence and scrupulously tries to avoid
working from his gut. That’s what being a great investigator requires. Garrison,
as perhaps the greatest protective agent in the service, often has to work from
gut, from pure instinct. In protective work that is often all you have.
Garrison’s and Breckinridge’s recent falling out was triggered by Breckinridge’s
mistaken belief that Garrison was having an affair with Breckinridge's now
ex-wife.
Jill Marin, a tough, sassy and ambitious young agent who just graduated second
in her class at the Secret Service Academy, arrives for her first field posting.
She has requested a work detail with Breckinridge because Garrison, while
leading a field instruction exercise at the Academy told Jill that Breckinridge
was the best investigator in the entire Service.
Together the trio begins to uncover what appears to be an inside job to
assassinate the president – a traitor in the ranks of the Secret Service. It's
never happened in the institution's 141-year history.
Suspicion ultimately falls on Garrison, who's going to find it extremely
difficult to clear his name because someone is framing him.
Whoever is framing Garrison knows he’s vulnerable because he’s devoting
considerable effort to hiding a monumental secret. Suspected of being
treasonous, Garrison goes on the run, pursued by Breckinridge and Marin – his
own colleagues – as he tries to nail the real mole and save the president's
life.
