Daniel has one job: protect the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, no matter the cost. He works for the prestigious Twin Towers Security Agency, or TTSA, which protects them from.any threats. As the people in the World Trade Center finally return to their pre-Covid routines, the TTSA decides that they need to up their game to keep on protecting everyone from the constant threat of terrorism. However, many people grow weary of the TTSA's authority and some begin to rebel. As time goes on, TTSA Officers must work harder to enforce their safety measures. Daniel loves doing his job, and he does it rather well, but he must also overcome the never ending struggle to find the perfect balance between work and spending time with his daughter, Riley. A college student, she needs the support of her father now more than ever as she gets her stuff together to move out on her own. As Daniel continues to try and live his life the right way while simultaneously coping with his difficult past, things around the Twin Towers only seem to get worse.
This proves to be too much for poor Daniel, and he makes irrational decisions that cost him dearly. Daniel soon finds himself on the brink of losing both things that matter the most to him. Meanwhile, things at the WTC do not get any better for anyone and the possible end of it all seems to be no longer a question of if, but when. The Twin Towers dominated the skyline for five decades, surviving two of history's worst terror attacks, but now it seems as though their reign is nearing its termination. Will it be the angry, oppressed employees of the World Trade Center that bring it all crashing to the ground? Is it going to be the TTSA who crosses the line? Or, perhaps, is there some unseen third entity who will rise from the shadows in an attempt to fulfill their destiny, hoping that the third time will be the charm?
One thing remains certain: everyone's world is about to change, whether it be for the better, or perhaps, for the worse.
