Kathryn and Michael Angel, of Sacramento, California, are enjoying a normal Saturday evening at their home when there comes a knock on the door and their father is murdered, shot down in his own house. The murderer comes after the children but they manage to escape him. Later they find a computer disk left by their dead father, with a message telling them that they must only trust Vicki Harper, she is the only one they can trust in the whole world. They must run to her, the message says. Except Vicki Harper lives in Homestead, Florida, thousands of miles away. To get to her the children must run across a Continent. All the time they are being chased by gangsters, the FBI, cops and killers. The Organization wants them captured or dead. Because there is a question to ask: what happened to the stolen $220 million?
