In the heart of New York City, ex-military bodyguard Ryan Lock faces his most dangerous assignment yet.
Tasked with protecting the CEO of a controversial biotech company, Lock finds himself caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse when a peaceful protest turns into a bloodbath.
As bullets fly and bodies fall, Lock must navigate a web of corporate secrets, animal rights extremists, and professional assassins to keep his client alive.
But when the stakes are raised and a child's life hangs in the balance, Lock realizes that the true enemy may be closer than he ever imagined.
With time running out and danger lurking around every corner, can he unravel the conspiracy before it's too late?
