A CIA agent and his asset, a Private Investigator, are seriously injured in a getaway when they are captured while on assignment.

Now in hiding, the asset must unravel the truth about a global banking conspiracy that threatens WWIII -- without the CIA agent's help, as he is an amnesiac after his injuries.

With mercenaries, both foreign and domestic, as well as several government agencies hot on their trail, they can't stay hidden for long as they try to resuce the agent's kidnapped daughter that is being used against him for leverage, as well as unlock the agent's memories so that they can bring down a criminal conspiracay that reaches to the highest levels of government.
