Catherine Henley is an agent for CSIS, Canadian Security Intelligence Services and operates under the guise of an attorney to the public. Her two life supports are Maggie O'Donnell, who owns her own real estate agency, and Ella Lewis, a Linguistic Professor at University of Toronto; three very productive professionals, who are each other's life lines and laugh lines. When a mutual friend finds her dead husband on her living room floor, she turns to Catherine for help. The homicide detective, Jeremy Slade, who takes the case becomes interested in Catherine the first time he sees her and suspects she is not a lawyer as she claims. When he finds out she is keeping evidence from him, she has to admit what her real job is as an agent with CSIS; and that she is currently tracking a terrorist in a city with over four million souls in it. After their cases collide, they join forces to bring down a terrorist and a killer and to find the one hundred million dollars that is missing before the terrorist does. Intrigue, suspense, murder, a kidnapping, and a plan to assassinate the Russian ambassador all happen to bring four people together to find love. After all, one hundred million dollars can buy a lot of love. Or hate.
