Synopsis:
When a carefully-orchestrated drug bust goes horribly wrong, F.B.I. Agent Dawn Benson concludes that there are people within her own agency who are purposefully stifling her efforts to bring a wealthy, well-connected crime boss to justice. She then reaches out to an old childhood friend and college classmate now working for the C.I.A. for confirmation of her fears, as she now suspects that her best bud knows a lot more than she has led Dawn to believe.
