Aegis was created with the intention to protect. Now, it might just have the ability to destroy everything we've built.

Arden Locke is the founder and CEO of her company Aegis Security, creating the most advanced and secure system yet-a system she trusts with no one but herself. In the right hands, it could do an incredible amount of good. But in the wrong hands? It could tear down a government and bring an entire nation to its knees.

Owen Bennett is the picture-perfect FBI agent. He is kind, empathetic, and by the books with each move he makes. His flaw? He won't let the people around him get hurt, no matter the consequences.

Arden knows her code's dangers and will do anything to protect it. Owen understands the danger Arden is in and will do anything to protect her. But on the other side, enemies inside and out would do anything to get a hold of Arden and the code. The question is, who will cave first?

With enemies on all sides and nowhere left to run, Arden and Owen are forced into a high-stakes game of deception, where trust is dangerous, betrayal is inevitable, and the line between duty and something far more complicated begins to blur.

The clock is ticking. The chase is on. And the cost of losing? Unthinkable.
