In the year 2079, CIA agent Snow finds himself locked up for a crime he didn’t commit—murder. He is accused of taking the life of undercover agent Frank Armstrong, who had uncovered incriminating evidence about another agent leaking secrets concerning the space program. But the reality is far more complex; Snow was attempting to save Frank from a deadly assault when unknown assailants attacked him. Just before his demise, Frank managed to pass on vital evidence to Snow for safekeeping, and he does so without drawing the attention of the governmental forces that would soon capture Snow.
