Uber-geek Tucker and his beautiful wife, Carol, developed controversial security software together until the day he was fired and she was murdered. Now, six months later, another software engineer is dead, and just as the case is about to be cracked, the FBI agent with all the answers is killed in front of Tucker's eyes.
Shocked out of a self-inflicted alcohol haze by the brutal violence he's witnessed, Tucker is determined to track down the truth behind the killings - no matter what the cost. Hired as a software consultant at his old company, Tucker finds that the source code for their most important project is in deep trouble ... and there are people willing to kill to get their hands on it.
