When Special Agent Clay Jennings and his K9 partner, Ranger, take to the streets of Denver to fight human trafficking, he is shocked by the inordinate number of stolen innocents who've been forced into the sex trade. With each new face, his resolve to help these children escape their personal horror grows stronger. El Clark, a social worker who dedicates her life to rescuing exploited kids from the streets, works valiantly to locate their families or find them a safe place to live while they recuperate. She understands the plight of these young victims more than anyone knows. When these two champions of enslaved children team up, they discover a web of deviant corruption that reaches into the upper echelons of US politics and society. Adding to the nightmare, a vicious serial killer focused on murdering female prostitutes threatens to pull Clay and El away from unearthing the man behind the treacherous, Colorado-based, child prostitution ring. For Clay, working to solve these crimes is like taking one step forward and three back until El shares her story with him. Inspired by her bravery and fortitude, he is re-committed to the fight for justice. Clay and El battle against a mountain of power and money the height of which they'd never conceived, and end up building a powerful bond with one another along the way. El teaches Clay that every life they change matters-that they must do what they can, even when it's only one child at a time.

FBI Agent Logan Reed specializes in explosives. He can track and defuse almost any incendiary device... Except for the one buried deep inside his soul. Home from Afghanistan now for two years, Logan has secured the perfect assignment on the FBI-K9 Bomb Squad in Denver. His new partner, a Belgian Malinois named Gunner, is an expertly trained bomb-sniffing dog. He's everything a handler could hope for, except he's not Lobo. Agent Addison Thorne, a Bomb Technician at the top of her game, doesn't trust the new guy. He's too quiet and never goes out with the crew for a beer after work. There's just something about him that makes her nervous, and nerves aren't what a bomb-tech likes to feel. Tasked with finding a bomber on the loose in the Mile-High city, the explosives team must discover who is planting the devices and why before the civilian casualties skyrocket. Will they find all the bombs before panic ensues and they are forced to evacuate the capital? When Reed finds himself in a situation mirroring his painful past, he freezes up. Will Thorne be able to snap him back to the present before it's too late? Can he hold it together or will he fail once again? Either way, his own life and that of Thorne and Gunner could come to a fiery end.
