Accounting prodigy Annie, betrayed by her fiancé Damon Kross, fled and assumed the identity of Victoria Sterling, spending 24 years in hiding while raising her daughter Emma Sterling alone. But at her daughter's wedding, Damon Kross reappears, intertwining her fate with her in-law Alex Blackwood—a former Marine whose wife was also murdered by the same "Phantom" organization. From suspicion to partnership, and then to love, the two join forces, reactivating Victoria Sterling's tracking program buried 24 years ago to combat the villain Ivan Petrov's "Project Reset"—a financial nuclear bomb designed to collapse the global banking system.
