Synopsis

Michelle Maxwell, a rising star in the Secret Service, sees her career implode when a presidential candidate under her protection vanishes without a trace. The devastating loss forces her to confront a past tragedy that mirrors her own: Sean King, a former agent whose world shattered eight years prior when the candidate he guarded was assassinated. Both agents were momentarily distracted, a 'split second' leading to catastrophic consequences. Now, their seemingly separate disgraces begin to intertwine, pulling them into a labyrinth of deceit, hidden agendas, and lethal coincidences. As Michelle and Sean delve deeper, they unearth a terrifying truth: the events that ruined their lives were not isolated incidents but part of a meticulously planned, long-running conspiracy that threatens to escalate, plunging them into a fight for their lives and the truth.
