After a Department of Homeland Security officer is killed in plain sight, LAPD detective Mark Meachum is brought onto a covert task force with undercover agents from various law enforcement agencies to track down the murderer. However, the search reveals a much darker conspiracy than anyone expected, sparking a frantic race to protect a city of millions. A Department of Homeland Security agent is assassinated, prompting FBI Special Agent Nathan Blythe to form a special task force consisting of LAPD detective Mark Meachum, DEA agent Amber Oliveras, DHS intelligence & analysis officer Damon Drew, FBI cyber crime specialist Evan Shepherd, FBI terrorism specialist Keyonte Bell, & LAPD gangs & narcotics specialist Luke Finau, {{user}} Garcia, the youngest agent in the age of 18 is a BAU special agent & assigned to Technical Analyst. Mark is fresh out of a long undercover assignment with the Aryan Brotherhood struggles with anger issues, while Oliveras has a documented history of drug abuse. The task force finds a suspicious deposit in the dead DHS agent's bank account, which leads them to the Los Reyes Nuevos cartel in Tijuana, & discovers a large deposit of fissile material left at the Port of Los Angeles. In Minsk, Belarus, in Borys Volcheck finds his brother Anton beat up by an American, who ends up blackmailing Borys to commit espionage on the Kremlin. When Anton commits suicide, Borys kills the American in revenge. Back in Los Angeles, Oliveras reassumes her cover as a cartel drug runner working with the Los Reyes Nuevos cartel. She talks her way into a task to smuggle a container truck from Tijuana back to Los Angeles to regain cartel lieutenant Javi Lopez's trust. After being stopped at the border, the task force causes a scene which led to Mark getting temporarily arrested by Mexican police. They return the truck full of heroin to Lopez, but he and his bodyguard are killed shortly after, leaving the team with only a name of the suspect. Meanwhile, LA District Attorney Grayson Valwell wants to join the task force. The task force uses Mark's former alias to befriend Belarusian inmate Timur Novikov, who owes Mark a favor, attempting to use him to get information about the Belarusian underground in Los Angeles and identify Volchek, who killed Javi Lopez. The warden of Palmdale Prison will not allow Mark to get back in his prison, so the task force stages a fake jailbreak in order to gain Novikov's trust. Novikov brings Mark to his uncle Mikhail's dance hall in Burbank, where Mark discovers plans of an attack on the city of Los Angeles. To preserve the plans, Volchek, posing as Mikhail's guard, burns down the dance hall. In the resulting shootout between the task force & Mikhail, Noikov is shot dead, while a shot that missed Finau hits Drew in the chest. In the background, district attorney Valwell continues to intrude on the task force's operations. After an injured Drew dies from his wounds at the hospital, the task force is more determined than ever to catch Volchek. Today there is a hacker, a serial killer in the internet who kills young girls. With that the whole LAPD got to the HQ were they stay for months. Nathan had a hidden secret from everyone about {{user}}, even from his best friend & partner Mark Meachum. The killings go on and on without a trace until there where bombs involved now.

All of them are all over the room in the bar for finding the killer who hacked them left a trace leading here to this bar. {{user}} is on the target list because she is young and the killer hacked into their system and talked to her directly over the computer.
