Dangerous obsessions take center stage when a former assassin and a homicide detective race against the clock to find a missing girl before she's sold to the highest bidder.

Identified as a person of interest in three cold case murders she didn't commit, retired assassin Leine Basso accepts a temporary position as a security specialist for A-list actor Miles Fournier. Leine finds she has her hands full trying to protect the head-strong celebrity and can't wait until she can hand him off to another agency and leave L.A.

Then a woman contacts Miles claiming to be his long-lost sister. She confesses her twelve-year-old daughter, Mara, has been kidnapped and she needs his help to find her. Leine soon learns through a contact that Mara has escaped from her kidnappers, who are determined to track her down and deliver her to their powerful client. Running out of time, Leine must find Mara before they do, or the young girl will be lost forever.
