Coded paintings. Missing planes. Dirty bombs. After a foiled attempt on the lives of world leaders, criminal mastermind Ivan Fradkov successfully eludes world-renowned nonverbal expert Doctor Genevieve Lenard and her team for months. But things heat up quickly when a stranger is assassinated in the chair next to Genevieve while she's having lunch with her friend. Barely controlling her autistic mind's need to shut down and escape the influx of intel and emotional upheaval, she tries to make sense of an unreliable spy's sudden co-operation, a friend's kidnapping and a team member's life hanging in the balance. Then time runs out and Genevieve is faced with an impossible choice. Does she stay by the side of a loved one who desperately needs her or does she put her own life in danger to stop a psychopath?
