Plot – A FBI Special Agent, a CIA agent and a US Army General take the same oath to support and defend the Constitution. When a bus explodes in Brooklyn and terror spreads in the streets of New York, for them it's time to deal with its implications. Anthony Hub Hubbard, head of the Anti-Terrorism Task Force, is the man in charge to protect the city from a variety of threats, together with FBI and the NY Police Department. Elise Kraft is a CIA agent, now infiltrated in the Arab-American community. Her agenda is far more complex than Hub's. The two are forced to work together in an uneasy alliance, while acts of terrorism threaten the city.

“- Elise Kraft: You might consider leaving him alone.
- Anthony 'Hub' Hubbard: Why would I consider doing that?
- Elise Kraft: Play him like a cop and haul him in now and get your arrest, or tag him and let him lead you to the really big fish.”“You have the right not to be tortured, not to be murdered, rights that you took away from Tariq Husseini. You have those rights because of the men who came before you who wore that uniform. Because of the men and women who are standing here right now waiting for you to give them the order to fire.”
“You don't fight a junkyard dog with ASPCA rules. What you do is you take the leash off your bigger, meaner dog.”
