Dr. Gideon Ben-Ari enjoys a relaxing life in Silicon Valley. He rides his bicycle to work on his secret project developing an algorithm for a defense program against simultaneous ballistic missile barrages fired from several locations. Gideon also has a weakness for women from the past who have made their way into his heart, never to leave. When his research becomes a target for espionage by hostile fundamentalist powers, he falls personally into the crosshairs.

Gideon finds himself caught among powers greater and stronger than he. Will he be able to tell those he can trust from those who are trying to ensnare him in their web?
