How an Iraq War veteran, battle-trained in maximum security telecom encryption and battling her own post-combat trauma, uses her high-tech expertise to bring down a tea party candidate for the United States Senate. Twenty-four years old and home from a hellish stint in Iraq, Kerryann Terkel stands at a crossroads. After three years in the U.S. Army Signal Corps, she can operate some of the world's most sophisticated telecommunications systems. Into her life comes Ricky Ray, a corrupt police detective, and Ricky's partner in crime, Mel Walter Booth, a good ol' boy prone to sudden fits of violence. Together, they run a series of small-money cons and frauds (using Ricky's police authority as cover). These public and private worlds collide when Ricky and Mel concoct a scam to steal hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Senate candidate's campaign war chest. To make it happen, they need to push Kerryann's telecom skills to the limit. As the scheme progresses, tension builds and questions mount. Will Kerryann go through with their criminal enterprise?
