She may be a teenager, but no one can say that Katie Adams is a shrinking violet. There is plenty she's got to say about her parents suddenly uprooting their life - her life - to California. It's certainly a change of scenery; where there are new faces and new spaces to explore.

Despite their best efforts to recruit Katie, the danger soon lurks at every corner and in every car window. Her reluctance catches the attention of rogue FBI agent, Roberson, who tries to help - but will it take a blast from her past to save her life?
