Frank Ross, an opportunistic and brilliant investment banker, finds himself entangled in a high-stakes scheme orchestrated by a shady billionaire, Bernard Lesco.

Simultaneously, Sarah Turner, a talented investigative journalist, stumbles upon evidence suggesting Lesco's involvement in illegal activities. Determined to expose the truth, Sarah becomes a formidable opponent to both the billionaire and Frank.

As the plot unfolds, Frank finds himself torn between loyalty to Lesco and his growing admiration for Sarah's relentless pursuit of justice. With each move, Frank risks losing everything he has worked for, while Sarah faces life-threatening consequences in her quest for the truth.
