Vesper Hale -- It only takes a moment for your whole life to change, forever.

Vesper is a nineteen year old girl with a dark past, who had no idea what she was getting herself into when she went to the bank one day. In a flash, some men break into the bank, and steal twelve million dollars from the vault. Taking the place of another women, Vesper offers herself as a hostage before they leave. Now, she'll need to fight for herself if she wants to stay alive.
 
Josef Pierce -- Will his intentions, good or bad, matter in the end?

Josef never knew how his day would go the moment he entered the bank. At the time, he had only one thought on his mind, but everything changed when he met Vesper. Surprised by her selflessness, he agrees to her proposition. At once he is captivated by the young girl before him, but his conflicted feelings don't help the situation. He cannot afford to be distracted, not now. There are too many things at stake.
 
David Carter -- He never could have guessed what was in store for him.

Detective Carter is a young, rather new detective. He is extremely smart, and thinks quick on his feet, which has allowed him to jump through the ranks so quickly. Some people don't think he deserves his station yet, and he has to continually prove himself as a good cop. He ends up as the lead detective on the bank robbery case, and is now in charge of locating the missing money and bringing the thieves to justice - as well as being Vesper's only hope for a rescue.
