Jocelyn "Joss" Cole, a burned-out public defender from L.A., has opted for a quieter life in the San Juan Islands of Washington State. With no significant clients other than a group of commercial fishermen suffering from an unknown illness, Joss believes that the condition has an industrial cause. Then, Dean Belden, a well-heeled client, arrives at her office seeking help with setting up a business. Soon after, Belden is subpoenaed to appear before a federal grand jury, and within an hour of testifying, he dies in a fiery explosion on his floatplane. Meanwhile, Gideon Van Ry, a nuclear fission expert, discovers two small tactical nuclear devices missing from a storage facility in the former Soviet Union. The missing weapons were last seen being shipped to a company called Belden Electronics, which leads Gideon to the lawyer who incorporated the company – Jocelyn Cole. As Joss uncovers the dark connections, she is thrust into a world of nuclear terror and the terrifying reality of private hate and public apathy.
