FBI civilian data analyst, Lacy Merrick, manages the threat of terrorism every day. But when terror strikes home, she is faced with a new reality and a new enemy.

When she crosses paths with Special Agent Will Caison after the tragic incident, Lacy begins to unravel a furtive plot to discredit not only her, but her husband and cyber security expert, Jay Merrick.

The plot, she soon discovers, balances on the tip of a deeply embedded secret that has the potential to destroy a nation. Lacy recruits Agent Caison and long-time friend and hacker, Aaron Hunter, to help her find those responsible for taking the lives of so many Americans. She must clear the cloud of suspicion around her family and reveal a truth that will inflame a fearful public.

But powerful enemies surround her every move and will employ all necessary resources to keep Lacy and everyone she loves silent forever.

I enjoyed this enough as a standalone but don't think I'll continue with the series. I didn't find the characters particularly believable and the cyber aspects annoyed me (as someone in the field). But the plot moved at a respectable pace and the narration wasn't bad.

Decent enough standalone
